Inspired by the devastating 2004 Madrid bombings, which claimed 193 lives and injured thousands, this story asks a haunting question: does tragedy feel more real when it hits closer to home?

​

What if it happened where you shop, where you spend an ordinary afternoon?

When a bomb detonates inside a Reykjavik shopping mall, chaos erupts.

 

Amid the destruction, five strangers narrowly escape death only to find themselves trapped together in a shattered elevator shaft. Cut off from the outside world, injured and terrified, they must confront not only their physical survival, but each other.

​

As time runs out and hope fades, the group is forced to reckon with fear, trust, and the fragile line between life and death.
