A tense, morally murky thriller about a skilled assassin hunted by multiple forces while his deteriorating mind becomes both his greatest liability and a source of existential reckoning.

Alex, an assassin-for-hire, finds that he's become a target after he refuses to complete a job for a dangerous criminal organization. With the crime syndicate and FBI in hot pursuit, Alex has the skills to stay ahead, except for one thing: he is struggling with severe memory loss, affecting his every move. Alex must question his every action and whom he can ultimately trust.
