A New York actor returns to his decaying hometown to care for his father, only to uncover dark family secrets, confront a lifetime of abuse, and face a harrowing moral reckoning that could either destroy—or finally heal—his fractured family.
TAKEN AWAY
When a devoted man kidnaps two teenagers to restore a fractured family, he ignites a deadly chain of secrets, betrayals, and revelations that blur the line between salvation and obsession.
Last Train Home
On the brink of execution, a condemned man is offered a surreal second chance to travel back into his own past—where he must confront his younger self and prevent the single choice that turned him into a killer, even if it means erasing the man he has become.
ARMED:STAY
Paralyzed by grief after her husband’s death in Afghanistan, Joy hasn’t left her bedroom in months—but when a wounded fugitive breaks into her home seeking drugs, she is forced to confront her fears, protect her children, and finally reclaim the life she’s abandoned.
Sanctuary
A mute, homeless drifter becomes the sole beneficiary of a stranger’s fortune after attending the man’s funeral, igniting a search that challenges faith, exposes buried truths, and leads to a miracle that changes an entire community.
OVERPASS
When a workaholic cosmetic surgeon survives a highway catastrophe thanks to a cement truck driver’s fatal act of kindness, he’s rewarded not with gratitude—but with a dead man in the passenger seat, demanding apologies, confessions, and a crash course in how not to waste a life.
THE TEST
On an anniversary trip to San Francisco, a wife’s half-baked fidelity test collides with her husband’s midlife vanity, dropping an ordinary man into an extraordinary con where coincidence masquerades as destiny and every “smart” move only makes things worse.
Curbside Service
Stranded in the desert on their way to a chaotic family holiday, a recently separated couple must navigate old sparks, unresolved baggage, and each other - one breakdown at a time.
I'll Sleep When I'm Dead
When a veteran LAPD detective is framed for the murder of his lover and diagnosed with a fatal neurological disorder that will kill him the next time he sleeps, he has one sleepless stretch of Los Angeles night to uncover the truth, protect his family, and decide how much justice he can still afford.
A LITTLE FAVOR
This week two discarded doomsday weapons that fell into the backside of the sun will explode next Wednesday 7 PM, causing major global warming, unless a blackballed fighter pilot, now a wild west show fast draw, does “a little favor” and retrieves the off-course bombs by then.
