London-born director Asif Kapadia's second feature, following 2001's critically acclaimed THE WARRIOR, is a slow, low-key supernatural thriller whose story is too slender to justify its feature-length running time.
Joanna Mills (Sarah Michelle Gellar) is a top-notch sales representative for a St. Louis, Missouri-based interstate trucking company whose job keeps her constantly on the road to everywhere but her home state, Texas. Restless and high-strung, Joanna hates to stay still; she's haunted by the vague feeling that something is always gaining on her, and the only way to escape its clutches is to keep moving. Some of Joanna's troubles are mundane enough...
