Desert heat, dirty secrets, and partners who'd rather shoot each other than the killer.
A series of murders leads Agent Vanessa Mann to a small town, where she’s paired up with local sheriff Woodrow Green. While the hot desert air only thickens the tension between the new partners, suspicions arise when they pick up hitchhiking couple Mickey and Jack. Another curveball is thrown their way when their car breaks down and they’re forced to be towed by garage owner Angel. With a killer still on the loose, an ensuing night of sexual excess and a series of double crosses will test just how far these officers are willing to go to crack the case.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Ricky Greenwood shot the desert breakdown sequence during an actual sandstorm after the budget couldn't afford another location day.
The 146-minute runtime deliberately mirrors classic 1970s paranoid thrillers like The Parallax View, forcing audiences to marinate in dread. The motel scene's color grading shifts from amber to clinical blue as Vanessa's trust erodes.
