Nolan Bentley awakens in a remote forest, tied to a tree, with no memory of how long he has been there. Hunger and dehydration increasingly take their toll when suddenly a mysterious man appears and sets up his tent just a few meters away while bizarrely refusing to untie him.

Slowly but surely, Nolan’s suspicions are confirmed: the stranger is indeed the one who has tied him up, and he has no intention of setting him free. Time is mercilessly running out for Nolan, and he must confront the demons of his past in order to survive and find a way out of this nightmare.
