A claustrophobic drama unfolds within the confines of a desolate Oklahoma motel, where Agnes, burdened by past abuse and lonely isolation, finds an unsettling connection with a reclusive Gulf War veteran, Peter. Their shared vulnerabilities ignite a spiraling descent into shared paranoia, fueled by Peter’s conviction that he’s infested with microscopic organisms. What begins as a fragile friendship warps into a terrifying, mutually-reinforcing psychosis as their realities blur, blurring the lines between psychological thriller and unnerving body horror. The film’s power lies not in jump scares, but in the disconcerting intimacy of their unraveling minds, portraying a haunting exploration of trauma, delusion, and the desperate search for connection in a world that feels fundamentally unsafe.
