Sew Torn

A quick-fingered seamstress in a rain-slick city snatches a briefcase from a drug deal gone wrong, hoping to trade it for a fresh start. Her skill with needle and thread becomes both metaphor and survival tool as she mends more than fabric—stitching together lies, alibis, and escape routes. When the original owners come looking, she is pulled into an escalating game of cat and mouse where each choice tangles her deeper into danger.

The film unfolds like a tailor-made maze, sending the story down drastically different paths with split-second decisions that reshape outcome and consequence. Intimate close-ups of hands, thread, and seams transform domestic craft into tense, kinetic choreography, while a pulsing score and precise sound design keep the needle's eye razor-sharp. Equal parts neo-noir thriller and moral fable, Sew Torn probes how far a person will go to remake their life—and whether some frayed edges can ever be fully mended.
