PlotA young bride-to-be is driving alone along a deserted highway when she decides to pick up a charming hitchhiker. Ignoring warnings from her family and her own reservations, she offers the stranger a ride, motivated by a combination of pity and an adventurous spirit. Their initial interaction is friendly and lighthearted, with the hitchhiker sharing stories of his travels and the driver enjoying the company on the lonely road. However, the atmosphere quickly shifts as the hitchhiker's behavior becomes increasingly unsettling, revealing a much more sinister intention than she could have anticipated.
As the journey continues, the driver's initial unease turns to terror when she realizes that her passenger is not only dangerous but also cunning and manipulative. In a desperate attempt to protect herself, she makes a decision that inadvertently puts her in an even more perilous situation. Isolated and with limited resources, she must rely on her wits and determination to survive. The serene beauty of the highway contrasts sharply with the dark, psychological battle that unfolds inside the car, setting the stage for a tense and gripping survival thriller.
