Plot

Brothers Matt and Joey embark on a desperate mission to steal money in order to help their sick mother. Joey, the younger and more reluctant sibling, is often bullied and coerced by Matt into participating in the heist. Things take an unexpected turn when a security guard named Hamby discovers their plan and gives chase. In a frantic pursuit, Hamby accidentally falls into a hidden, deep well in a remote area of the forest. Trapped and injured, he pleads for help, but Matt sees this as an opportunity to eliminate a loose end, while Joey wrestles with his conscience.

As days pass, Joey begins to secretly visit Hamby, providing him with food and water. During these tense interactions, secrets unravel, and Joey learns more about his captor's troubled past. Mistrust and paranoia creep in, testing the brothers' fractured relationship. The moral conflict between right and wrong intensifies for Joey, who is trapped between loyalty to his brother and his growing empathy for the trapped man. With suspense building, future revelations threaten to upend their lives dramatically.
