Normal
“Small town. Big secret.”
ActionCrimeThriller
An unassuming substitute sheriff with a troubled past responds to a bank robbery in a small, sleepy town and unknowingly uncovers something far more explosive.
VIBE
A slow-burn thriller set in a deceptively quiet town. Expect simmering tension and a sense of unease as a reluctant hero navigates a web of corruption. It feels like a classic crime drama with a modern, gritty edge.
