A young couple, Alex and Mia, find themselves trapped in a bizarre time loop during their anniversary celebration. Each night, they are forced to relive the same events, encountering a mysterious man who seems to be hunting them. As the loop repeats, their relationship is tested, and they must find a way to break the cycle before it consumes them entirely.
