Mother's Day

In a quiet suburban neighborhood, a storm‑laden night becomes the backdrop for an unsettling clash of past and present. The house at the center of the story is more than a dwelling; it is a relic of lost stability, now caught in the uneasy grip of foreclosure and an imminent tornado that looms like a silent antagonist. The atmosphere is thick with tension, blending domestic normalcy with an undercurrent of danger that never quite lets the characters—or the audience—settle into comfort.

Johnny Koffin, along with his brothers Ike and Addley, scramble back to the place they once called home after a botched bank robbery forces them onto the run. Bruised and desperate, they are driven by a fierce need for refuge, yet find the familiar front door now belongs to strangers. Their arrival sets the stage for a collision between a life once known and a reality that has moved on without them, turning a simple quest for shelter into a catalyst for uneasy alliances and hidden motives.

Living in the reclaimed house are Beth and Daniel Sohapi, a couple celebrating a birthday surrounded by close friends. Their gathering, meant to be a night of laughter and togetherness, suddenly becomes a fragile enclave where strangers and acquaintances intersect. The presence of the three brothers throws the evening into a precarious balance, hinting at alliances that are as tentative as the storm outside, and suggesting that the house will become a pressure cooker for secrets and survival.

When the brothers’ mother Natalie Koffin reappears, she brings with her a relentless determination to protect her children at any cost. Her sudden return injects a new, urgent energy into the already volatile setting, turning the home into a stage where familial loyalty, desperation, and the looming natural threat intertwine. The film promises a tense, character‑driven showdown that hinges as much on emotional stakes as on the oppressive, stormy world that closes in around them.
