Synopsis
Suppose everything you knew - everything you trusted - became a lie. For Matt Lee Whitlock, that nightmare has become a reality.
Matt (Denzel Washington) is the chief of police in small Banyan Key, Florida. A hardworking man who's good at his job, he's respected by his peers and beloved by his community. But when Banyan Key is shocked by a brutal double homicide, Matt starts his investigation - and his life starts to unravel. As details of the case begin to surface, all of the evidence points to Matt as the prime suspect.
Now with the investigation in full swing and several people working the case, Matt finds himself in a race against time to solve the murders before others uncover the clues he's finding and he himself falls under suspicion. He has to stay a few steps ahead of his own police force and everyone he's trusted in order to clear his name and uncover the horrifying truth. As the film's intricate storyline twists and turns, speeding towards its explosive climactic confrontation, it becomes all too apparent that the truth is on Matt's side - time, however, is not.
