Years after his young daughter vanished without a trace from the back seat of his truck, a father receives newfound hope that she is alive and being held in captivity in this drama from Academy Award-nominated director Atom Egoyan.

Convinced this is proof-positive his daughter is still alive, desperate father Matthew vows to ensure her safe return even if it means risking his own life.
