Synopsis

In 2010, at the peak of the Saudi YouTube movement, high school senior Husam finds himself drawn into the world of video production. He’s joined in his pursuit by his best friend Maan, their one-time foe Ibrahim, and Orabi a teacher with a passion for filmmaking. In the middle of their senior year, they set out to produce a no-budget horror movie – a wild adventure that will put their futures at risk.

When recently single Steven moves into his new apartment, cable guy Chip comes to hook him up—and doesn't let go.

He begins stalking Steven, who's left to fend for himself because no one else can believe Chip's capable of such behaviour.
