Synopsis

More about
the story

The Final Stop official poster: Medet Aman and Olya Aman, Mediculus Pictures

Some people could be wronged by misadventure in the mere search for someone to blame.

Emily’s father left when she was only 4. It made her vulnerable to men. After a series of failed relationships, she found herself emotionally broken and physically lost in the middle of a lonely and scary road. Some unfortunate aberration of mind forced Emily to stop in an attempt to help a shy and seemingly insecure-looking man. Further events speedily developed from foolish to deadly.

Through Emily’s mind game, we meet a stranger, whom she labels “a murderer”. We also learn that she is struggling to balance her own rage by means of blaming the outside world and men in particular for what was wrong in her life.

The outcome of this affair is gruesomely staggering and completely unexpected.
