A dark, paranoia-soaked psychological thriller built on voyeurism and surveillance, where a couple's desert escape becomes a nightmare of hidden horrors and twisted manipulation.

A psycho- sexual thriller following a couple that buys an old motel in the desert looking for a new beginning, but what seemed at first as an escape is soon a thrilling ride through a mysterious world when Ray discovers a two way mirror and witnesses a horrifying murder. In a twisted game of cat and mouse, Ray must race to save his wife and himself from a gruesome secret connected to the motel and the strange people who visit there.
