Timid and hardworking single mother Shari (Ella Balinska) brushes away hesitations and decides to dip her toe back into the dating scene after being spurred on by her coworkers. She’s thrilled when her boss sets her up on a blind date with Ethan (Pilou Asbæk), who initially proves every bit as charming and magnetic as his photo. Ethan can’t hide his true nature for very long though - and when things quickly turn sinister, Shari must find a way to escape. Forced to navigate the streets of LA after hours on foot, Shari learns Ethan is far more connected and violent than she ever imagined. (Sundance Film Festival)
