Our take
A woman gets pulled over after claiming she gave birth, though the baby is not hers, in this M thriller. Police tension, abduction stakes, strong language, and mature sexual references fill the investigation scenes. The story stays twisty and crime-focused. Older teens and adults are the natural audience.
Story (may spoil tone)
Police pull over a woman who claims she just gave birth. But the baby — and the blood — aren't hers. Twisted lies unravel in this true-crime documentary.
