Swerve
Wrong Turn. Wrong Place. Wrong Time.
Directed by Craig Lahiff
A darkly twisted crime thriller where a good deed spirals into a nightmare of escalating consequences and moral ambiguity.
Driving cross-country to a job interview, Colin takes a short cut and comes across a fatal road accident. One of the drivers, Jina, is shaken but unhurt; the other has been killed instantly. Beside the dead body is a briefcase full of money, which Colin turns in to the local police. But getting out of town proves a nightmare, as Colin's good deed causes a series of bizarre events to unfold.
