A middle-aged hitman, desperate to save his daughter from the depression that claimed his wife, kidnaps his favorite writer to inspire her—only to kill the writer when she urges his daughter to quit, reigniting his daughter's dreams while he clings to a hopeful delusion. A crime thriller indie feature film with an absurdist, darkly humorous twist set inside a suffocating shoe-box environment. Shoot dates: October 31 – November 15, 2026, in the NYC area.
