“After Becky's distress call, Felix finds her attacked by abusive boyfriend in a seedy motel. The struggle ends in death, leaving them trapped in room, facing a nosy receptionist, police pressure, and a choice: confess or cover up.”
Felix's world is upended when his sister Becky, caught in an abusive relationship, sends a desperate plea for help. Racing to a motel, Felix arrives to find a volatile and dangerous situation unfolding. Trapped together within the confining walls of a single motel room, Felix and Becky are forced to confront their fraught past and the consequences of a life-altering event that changes everything between them. As suspicion and paranoia grow, compounded by a nosy motel receptionist and the fractured ties of their family-the siblings must navigate a tense standoff where trust is fragile and every decision carries grave risk. This claustrophobic thriller delves into the raw edges of loyalty, sacrifice, and the shadows cast by trauma.
