About
A young man walks over seventy miles under the California sun, driven by a desperate need to reunite with his infant son. Upon arriving at the imposing estate of his ex-wife's family, he discovers that his former mother-in-law has been brutally attacked-and he is the prime suspect. Exhausted and feverish, he is hidden in the house's secluded turret room by a sympathetic relative who suspects the truth is not what it seems.
As the family closes ranks and the police draw closer, the web of lies tightens around him. The ex-wife claims she saw him fleeing the scene, echoing a past betrayal that once shattered his life. Now, trapped and vulnerable, he must untangle a knot of secrets and manipulation before history repeats itself. But in a house where perception is weaponized, his innocence may not be enough to save him.
