Evan Webber (Keanu Reeves) is presented as the picture of modern success: a talented and wealthy architect living in a stunning, minimalist home he designed himself, married to a beautiful artist (Ignacia Allamand) with two adorable children. As the film opens, his family departs for a beach vacation, leaving him alone for what he expects to be a quiet Father's Day weekend of work, red wine, and listening to his treasured vinyl records.
On a rainy night, a soaking wet young woman named (Lorenza Izzo) knocks on his door, claiming to be lost. Evan reluctantly lets her in to use the phone. Soon after, her friend Bel (Ana de Armas) also arrives.
