Paul is a down-on-his-luck screenwriter who picks up a drifter and offers him a place to stay. However, when the deranged stranger takes Paul hostage and forces him to write, their unhinged relationship brings buried secrets to light.
A desperate screenwriter finds himself held captive by a volatile drifter who demands a script written in real time. This claustrophobic psychological duel forces long-buried traumas into the light through a twisted, symbiotic bond.
