Los Angeles
After a bitter family dinner, Chloe storms out and crashes her car on a remote country road. Disoriented and suffering from head trauma and sudden hearing distortion, she stumbles upon an isolated Victorian house and is taken in by its seemingly kind but socially awkward owner, Colin. As Chloe struggles to recover, small inconsistencies begin to surface. The isolation of the house, delays in contacting emergency services, and Colin's increasingly unsettling behavior gradually erode her sense of security. What first appears to be a refuge slowly reveals itself as something far more dangerous. Cut off from the outside world and trapped in an environment she doesn't fully understand, Chloe must navigate fear, uncertainty, and her own worsening condition as she fights to survive.
