A claustrophobic, real-time thriller that traps the viewer in a desperate criminal's escalating nightmare as everything unravels in a single night.

In this single shot thriller, we're in the driver's seat with small-time dealer Budge as he tries to pull one last deal with cash borrowed from a dangerous loan shark. When the handover goes catastrophically wrong, Budge finds himself in a race against time to find his missing product and get a new buyer before the loan shark tracks him down.
