2009101 min5.4 / 10

A parallel-narrative thriller that uses a coin flip to explore how chance shapes destiny, balancing intimate character discovery against urban suspense and existential questions about choice and consequence.

Every choice has a consequence. But what if the flip of a coin could trigger two separate but parallel destinies? Bobby and Kate are a young New York couple at a crossroads whose lives are about to take very different directions. A seemingly ordinary July 4th is cleaved in two by the flip of a coin. One path leads them to gentle discoveries about family, loss and each other on a visit to Brooklyn, and the other plunges them into an urban nightmare of pursuit, suspense and murder in Manhattan.
