## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

South LA dawn. A child’s car seat empty by the curb, a single sneaker left on asphalt.

Car jacked midday with his boy still inside, the ex-con tracks the ride through gang tags and blood-red taillights.

A thriller where the only way out is deeper in.

**Mood tags**: dread, raw
