Synopsis:
An apartment open house becomes a life-or-death situation when a failed bank robber bursts in and takes a group of strangers hostage. A wealthy banker hat cares only about making money; a disagreeable young couple about to become parents; an eighty-seven-year-old woman that has long enough and is fearless; a flustered but ambitious real estate agent; a mystery man that has locked himself in the apartment's only bathroom. Non is entirely who they appear to be, carrying a lifetime of grievances, hurts, secrets, and passions that ready to boil over. Surprising truths will be revealed setting off a chain of unexpected and unexplainable events.
