A trip to rekindle a couple’s passions goes terribly wrong in the thriller Held, starring Jill Awbrey and Bart Johnson.
Directed by Chris Lofing and Travis Cluff from the script by Awbrey, Held centers on Emma (Jill Awbrey) and Henry (Bart Johnson) whose marriage is losing its spark. In an effort to reconnect, they vacation to a remote high-end rental, complete with automated smart house features and integrated security. However, after suspecting a nighttime intruder they decide to flee, only to become forcibly trapped inside by the automated security system. Emitting from the house, an unknown ‘Voice’ watches their every move through an array of hidden cameras, revealing an intimate and unsettling knowledge of their relationship. While the situation grows increasingly brutal, Emma and Henry must work together to uncover the truth and find a way out before it’s too late.
Tremendum Pictures’ Lofing, Cluff, and Kyle Gentz produced. Executive producers are Brent Powell, Ryan Pratt, Jener Dasilva, Sohrab Sohrabi, Thomas Dowell, and Tyler Myers.
