There is no such thing as a no fault death.

DramaThriller

Insurance investigator Abraham Holt travels to a tiny town in rural Minnesota to look into a particularly unusual insurance claim stemming from a horrific car accident. As Holt examines the scene of the wreck, it all seems a bit too perfect. And when he interviews Isold Mcbride and her shifty husband, Fred -- the impoverished beneficiaries of the massive, recently initiated life-insurance policy -- he begins to suspect that something is amiss.

VIBE

A quiet, unsettling mystery unfolds with a somber, melancholic tone. The film feels like a slow, deliberate examination of grief and deception, set against a stark, atmospheric backdrop. It's a contemplative, character-driven experience.
