LOGLINE

On Thanksgiving Eve, a looming hurricane strands four strangers inside a small-town grocery market. As the storm stalls and stakes rise, secrets are unearthed, unexpected bonds form, and redemption emerges in the unlikeliest of aisles.

SYNOPSIS

On Thanksgiving Eve, a stalled hurricane leaves four mismatched strangers stuck overnight in a small coastal grocery store: Calder, a worn-down manager; Andy, an ad man mid-unraveling; and Liv and Miles, two Gen-Z employees balancing ambition, anxiety, and curiosity. 

As the hours drift on, shared wine and a few illicit gummies spark unexpected honesty, strange comfort, and a series of increasingly ridiculous shenanigans—including impromptu grocery cart races and nostalgic debates in the cereal aisle. But when Andy sheepishly admits he planted a handful of makeshift “devices” earlier that day during a moment of questionable judgment, the night shifts into a scrappy, darkly funny hunt to find and disarm them. In the process, unlikely connections form, offering all four a small but meaningful reset.
