In a thematic retelling of Edgar Allan Poe's "The Tell-Tale Heart," a man is forced to bring his elderly mother home from her nursing home after she is evicted on grounds of non-payment. She has severe dementia that gets worse the longer he attempts to care for her, and eventually he begins to wonder if she would simply be better off dead.

A dysfunctional anniversary date leads a man to an extreme method to try to win his boyfriend's heart back.
