A claustrophobic psychological thriller centered on an illicit affair that becomes entangled with murder, guilt, and legal ambiguity.

In their blue hotel room, a clandestine couple of two married lovers plan an impossible future, as death shutters their already frail tranquillity. Now, the noose tightens more and more around innocents and sinners; but, was there a crime?
