Time stopped in its tracks... when she pulled the trigger!

CrimeDramaMystery

Broadway star, Sheila Page, shoots Barney, her murderous husband on New Year's Eve. She flees her apartment and goes to her producer, John Friday. When she arrives, it is New Year's day, a year earlier. She has been given the chance to live life over and correct the errors of the past only to find that the end will be the same although the path will be different.

VIBE

A haunting, noir-tinged descent into a cyclical trap. It feels like a smoky, dimly lit room where every choice leads back to the same inevitable, tragic end. The atmosphere is thick with dread and the weight of inescapable destiny.
