After accidentally hitting and killing a man on a rainy highway, a married couple takes in the victim’s widow and disabled mother out of guilt. What begins as an uneasy act of compassion gradually turns into a tense and psychologically charged living arrangement. As suspicions, jealousy, and hidden desires surface, the relationship between the two women spirals toward obsession, betrayal, and tragedy.
