A woman races the night to untangle the enigma of her boyfriend's disappearance -- a death, a crime, and a family secret -- until, at a lonely pier, she must decide whether to collapse the truth and risk losing him forever.

SYNOPSIS:

COMPARABLES: On the surface, LOCKE (starring Tom Hardy) and THE GUILTY (starring Jake Gyllenhaal) because they’re essentially one actor films and take place over multiple phone calls in a car. Thematically, ARRIVAL (about grief and time) and ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND (about memory and loss).

PRACTICALITIES: Set mostly in a moving car with one main actor, at night, this can be an extremely lean and short production, leaving budget for a name actress, who will be won over by the unique concept and festival appeal.
