Visiting Hours

In a stark, fluorescent‑lit hospital, a celebrated journalist and feminist activist finds herself thrust from the glare of a televised interview into the sterile corridors of recovery. The assault that lands her on a gurney is only the opening move of a larger, relentless game, as an unseen, hostile presence refuses to let her slip away. The institution that should promise safety becomes a labyrinth where every shadow hints at danger, and the ordinary rhythms of medical care pulse with an undercurrent of dread.

Deborah Ballin is a driven, outspoken voice for women’s rights, whose conviction has made her both a beacon and a target. Her determination is mirrored by Gary Baylor, a seasoned news veteran who balances concern for his colleague with the practicalities of a newsroom that can be skeptical of terror. In the ward, Sheila Munroe—a compassionate nurse whose admiration for Deborah runs deep—offers steadiness amid the growing tension, while the relentless pursuer circles the edges of the hospital, turning the place of healing into a stage for a chilling cat‑and‑mouse dance.

The film’s tone is unapologetically tense, blending the clinical coldness of a medical setting with the visceral fear of being hunted. It explores how trauma can infiltrate even the most controlled environments, and how a survivor’s resolve can be tested against an almost inhuman persistence. As the corridors echo with quiet alarms and whispered warnings, the story builds a palpable sense of unease, inviting viewers to wonder how far perseverance can stretch when the walls meant to protect become the very arena of survival.
