Escape Room

In the midst of a global pandemic, the familiar walls of home become a pressure cooker for a couple whose relationship has already been frayed. As they navigate the monotony of quarantine, the ever‑present threat of illness is eclipsed by a more intimate betrayal: the man is caught cheating. The discovery shatters the fragile equilibrium they have been maintaining, turning every shared glance and silent dinner into a battleground of doubt and resentment.

A single, cryptic chat message arrives out of the blue, igniting a fresh wave of jealousy and pushing both partners to confront the unresolved questions that have lingered beneath their everyday routines. The digital intrusion forces them to examine how much of their future together is built on trust, shared dreams, or merely the convenience of proximity. As old arguments resurface and new insecurities take hold, the couple finds themselves caught between the desire to cling to what once was and the impulse to break free from a relationship that now feels as confining as the lockdown itself.

The film’s tone balances the claustrophobic anxiety of pandemic life with the uneasy humor that often accompanies strained domesticity. It paints a portrait of two people teetering on the edge of emotional collapse, each maneuvering through a maze of self‑deception and yearning for validation. By the end of the story, the audience is left questioning whether love can truly survive when the world outside is as uncertain as the hearts beating within the home.
