Plot Summary
The film opens with Rachel Quinn, played by Jessica Hart, who is a successful journalist. She returns to her hometown for the memorial of her best friend Emily, only to realize that her death, being termed as an accident, has unanswered mysteries that she has to solve. While trying to get closure over a ‘supposed’ accident, she meets her old childhood friends Luke and Sophie and discovers a series of dark secrets, ones that hint of betrayal, guilt and murder.
As Rachel investigates, she starts receiving anonymous letters, phone calls, and notices that escalates danger around her. That causes her to now believe that Emily may have been murdered by someone in her inner circle. Whose murder was it at all — the persistent question at the core of the riddle is this one: Emily died: because of someone she was responsible for.
Key Characters and Happenings
- Rachel Quinn (Jessica Hart): Hart has absolutely nailed a journalist role that also deals with grief and a lot of guilt. She has nailed Rachel’s vulnerability and never shying away from revealing her anger and determination to other aspects of the character.
- Luke Morrow (Ethan Cole): Ethan’s interpretation of Luke’s character incorporates him as a man who is ashamed of his past and understands the multiple layers of the character, who fluctuates between being regretful and being suspicious.
- Sophie Lane (Hannah Nguyen): College geeks will find her character the most relatable as a facilitating character to the whole group. While Nguyen’s emotional trauma of being a survivor in a terrified room web was made evident, she did so in more gentle terms.
- Detective Harris (David Clarke): The intensity of the scene in which Clarke acted as a small town detective and knew the crisis added further complexity — a fighter who knows a lot.
Direction and Cinematography
The director Sam Calloway manages to seamlessly create an ambient experience for the viewers by implementing pastels and using up close shots to add emotionally weighing scenes. The cinematography from Laura Chen is exceptional, she was able to capture the haunting rural settings of the town where every shadow and silence felt tense. During the key face-offs, sam’s decision of filming everything using a long tracking shot increased tension and discomfort in the situation amplifying the psychological aspect of the movie.
