Our take

Facing eviction in a city her family can no longer afford, a woman spends one desperate night trying to raise $25,000 before morning in this MA 15+ 2025 film. The scramble grows more dangerous as the hours tick down. Strong language, suicide themes, and action violence sit in the mix. ClearAge puts it around 16 for mature teens and adults.

Uplifting themes

Even through a bleak night, Lynette is fighting to keep her family housed and together. Messy choices and all, the film still treats that loyalty as worth the fight
