Quick Synopsis

Psychiatrist Sam Foster begins treating a new patient, Henry Letham, who expresses suicidal thoughts. As Sam investigates Henry's background, he contacts Henry's previous therapist and unexpectedly meets Henry's mother, despite Henry's claim that he killed both his parents. This contradiction causes Sam to question what is real, leading him into a deteriorating mental state. Eventually, Sam discovers a possible plan Henry has for ending his life and urgently tries to intervene before it's too late.
