Synopsis
Travelling home one night, radiologist Gina McVey (Lena Headey) suddenly sees herself drive past in her own car. Acting on impulse but somewhat perplexed, she intrepidly follows the car and the woman up to her apartment, where Gina finds a photo of her father with her double.
In a state of shock and panic, Gina flees the apartment and jumps into her car accelerating away. Overshooting a red light, she smashes into a truck and from here onwards, events take an eerie turn for the worse. Gina's awareness slides from solid reality into a world that will haunt more than just her nightmares.
