On an affluent Hampstead street, Lenny Bray, a once-beloved comedian, and his wife Maggie are drawn into a nightmare when Ben, a bloodied and frantic young man, collapses at their doorstep. Against Maggie’s instincts, Lenny invites him inside.
What begins as an act of compassion twists into psychological terror as Ben’s story unravels.
Trapped in their own home, Lenny and Maggie endure a tense standoff of manipulation, confessions, and shifting power.
The intruder may have brought the terror, but it’s Maggie who decides how the story ends.
