The Passenger

Synopsis

Beginning the morning after a family wedding, Charlotte and Dan Edmunds embark on their long drive home. Hungover and arguing, they narrowly avoid hitting a broken down motorist. Discovering it to be Dan’s colleague, Samuel, they offer him a lift home. But little do they realise the danger they have invited in to their world. Righteous and determined, Samuel is there to force Charlotte into admitting a secret and it soon becomes clear that a confession will not be enough.
