In the quiet, fluorescent-lit world of late-night hospitality, a young hotel clerk with a unique condition finds himself at the center of a deadly mystery. Tye Sheridan stars as Bart, an observant but socially awkward night auditor whose Asperger’s syndrome drives him to secretly monitor guests through hidden cameras in their rooms, studying their behavior to learn how to interact. His voyeuristic routine takes a dark turn when he witnesses a violent crime in one of the suites, placing him directly in the crosshairs of both a tenacious detective, played by John Leguizamo, and the actual perpetrator. Complicating matters further is a mysterious and alluring new guest, Andrea, portrayed by Ana de Armas, whose arrival sparks an unexpected connection just as Bart’s own mother, Helen Hunt, grows increasingly worried about his safety. This tense drama and crime thriller from writer-director Michael Cristofer weaves a claustrophobic tale of obsession, innocence, and peril, where the quest for human connection leads a young man into a labyrinth of deception where everyone seems to have something to hide.
