Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Director Nadeem Soumah has built a mini-empire of TV thrillers—this is one of seven films he's made with similar 'professional woman in peril' premises since 2019.
The film belongs to the 'competence porn gone wrong' subgenre where highly educated protagonists make catastrophically dumb personal choices—think Gone Girl's trashier cable cousin.
