When a young man is taken in for questioning about the disappearance of a woman, a seemingly routine interrogation slowly unravels into something far more personal. As hidden relationships, buried secrets, and long-suppressed truths begin to surface, the lines between justice, guilt, and revenge become increasingly blurred.
