What's a little murder among friends?

CrimeThriller

When David, Juliet, and Alex find their new roommate dead with a large sum of money, they agree to hide the body and keep the cash. However, this newfound fortune gradually corrodes their friendship.

VIBE

This film is a darkly mischievous descent into paranoia and moral decay. It's a tense, witty neo-noir that explores the corrosive power of greed on friendship. Expect grim humor, escalating distrust, and a propulsive unraveling of human decency, all wrapped in a stylishly cynical package.
