Synopsis

Everyone’s a suspect.

Violet (Meghann Fahy), a widowed mother, is stepping back into the dating world after years of grief. Her first date with Henry (Brandon Sklenar) at an upscale restaurant seems promising—until an unseen tormentor begins sending her ominous messages. What starts as an annoyance quickly escalates into a terrifying game of life and death. The unknown figure on her home security cameras threatens to kill her young son and babysitting sister unless she obeys a series of disturbing instructions. The final demand? Kill Henry.

With everyone in the restaurant now a suspect, Violet must navigate a night of psychological terror where trust is a luxury she can’t afford. Who is behind the torment? And how far will she go to protect the people she loves?
