Plot
Sarah and Phil are on roadtrip with their son, Jessie. They stop at a gas station to buy snacks and so their son can go to the washroom; however, in the time it takes for them to make their purchases they find that their son is missing.
Sarah, who is a teacher, deals with her grief by obsessing over one of her students, Adam, who has aspergers and who is ostracized by the other kids and treated poorly by his foster mother, Shannon. Phil meanwhile begins to attend a support group for parents who have lost their children.
Despite claiming that she knows their son is still alive, in the hazy aftermath of this unimaginable loss, Sarah begins a downwards spiral. Phil, a New York City cop, starts to lose sight of his morals as Sarah puts herself in increasingly dangerous situations, falling deeper into her own fever dream.
