A claustrophobic, psychologically tense chamber piece about three strangers trapped in close quarters, where intimacy becomes a weapon and boundaries dissolve.

In Philadelphia for the weekend, Tessa and Ben, a couple on the rocks, rent a room in the apartment of Adam, a reclusive stranger who quickly becomes an unwilling voyeur to the most private parts of the couple’s life. Tensions rise as the three enter an intimate battle to gain and reclaim territory.
