Shut In

SUSPENSE
MONOCHROMATIC

When a young mother is barricaded inside a pantry by her violent ex-boyfriend, she must use ingenuity to protect her two small children from escalating danger while finding an escape.

This movie is pretty intense! My heart was pumping. I love the simplicity of the story. The whole movie takes place in a house, with most of it being a mother trapped in a walk-in pantry! The build up of suspense of being trapped with your kids in danger is palpable - especially if you are parent. I like that the mother isn't perfect, but her efforts and love for her kids supersedes all. I also enjoy seeing her come up with creative ways to make the most of what little she can do in her position.
