SYNOPSIS : With his marriage collapsing and his life unraveling, police detective James reluctantly agrees to check on Scott, his estranged brother-in-law and former best friend. What begins as an uneasy attempt to reconnect quickly turns into a life-or-death confrontation when James discovers Scott alone, desperate, and holding a shotgun.
As James tries to talk him down, old wounds surface and Scott reveals that his despair runs deeper than his failing marriage and lost job—he feels abandoned by the friend he once trusted most. Forced to confront his own anger, guilt, and failures, James must find a way to reach Scott before one irreversible decision destroys them both.
