Come and Find Me 2016

As fate would have it, two strangers, David and Claire, disembark from the same bus at a shared stop. However, David’s curiosity gets the better of him, leading him to follow Claire, which prompts her to accuse him of stalking. This tense exchange soon reveals that they are, in fact, a devoted couple living together. Just when life seems to return to its normal rhythm, Claire mysteriously disappears without a trace. A distressed David reaches out to her friends and workplace, yet he is met with silence from authorities, who provide little more than a few flimsy missing person flyers.

One whole year drifts by, an eternity filled with uncertainty and heartache. It is during this time that Claire’s friend Buck unexpectedly reenters David’s life. Their conversation stirs a sense of unease in David, who becomes increasingly obsessed with the enigma of his missing girlfriend. One fateful night, fueled by a few too many drinks, David challenges Buck to join him on a whimsical escapade, which culminates in a reckless jump from a precarious ledge. The next day, Buck announces his sudden departure, leaving David in a tangled web of resentment and longing.

As the hours pass, David finds himself pulled back into the vibrant pulse of the city, riding buses through its bustling streets, where memories of Claire consume his thoughts. The bus driver, oblivious to David’s inner turmoil, ejects him at the final stop, forcing him back to a harsh reality. His apartment, which once served as a safe haven, is now in disarray thanks to Buck’s reckless search for clues. It is at this moment that Buck strikes, assaulting David with cold precision before making a hasty escape.

Picking himself up from the shattered remnants of his life, David once again turns to the authorities, only to encounter Detective Sloan’s skepticism and reluctance to pursue the case further. Undeterred, David embarks on his own investigation, stumbling upon a hidden trove of photographs that provide tantalizing leads. This breadcrumb trail guides him to a local junkyard, where a warm initial greeting from a mysterious man quickly devolves into hostility as he demands to know David’s purpose for visiting.

After enduring the cruel whims of fate at the hands of this enigmatic figure, David finds himself back in his apartment, where an unwelcome visitor awaits—Aleksandr, a ruthless mobster with a connection to the junkyard. As David engages in a tense interrogation with Aleksandr, he uncovers the shocking truth: Claire is wanted for her alleged involvement in the murder of Aleksandr’s brother. With his world turned upside down, David is thrust into a dark reality that may be lurking just beneath the surface. His journey for truth is interrupted once more when Detective Sloan reappears at his doorstep, bearing news that will irrevocably change David’s understanding of Claire and Buck.

Determined to get to the bottom of Claire’s disappearance and presumed fate in Vancouver, David delves into the motives of the enigmatic Aleksandr. His investigation leads him to interview the widow of a businessman, whose face appears alongside Claire’s in a series of photographs. Although this line of inquiry proves fruitless, David’s paranoia heightens when he notices a car tailing him through the city streets. Panic surges as he flees into the woods, only to find himself in a harrowing foot chase that culminates in a surprise attack, rendering his pursuer crippled. Just when David is about to escape, an SUV intercepts him and whisks him away to meet Hall, a high-ranking official with connections to the US government. Hall reveals that Claire was a highly skilled assassin for his organization before her untimely death, and her past is intertwined with both secrecy and danger. He presents photographic evidence of her demise and urges David to abandon his investigation, warning that uncovering the truth about her assassination could put him in grave danger.

Initially compliant, David’s inherent curiosity and skepticism quickly resurface, leading him to question Hall’s true intentions. Realizing he cannot remain a prisoner, David makes a daring escape by commandeering the SUV. In the chaotic aftermath of this high-stakes getaway, David visits a police station and stumbles upon a missing person’s file with Claire’s name—though the alias used is unsettling. This pivotal discovery sets him on a collision course with Buck, who has assumed the name Kyle. Driven by his unyielding desire for the truth, David orchestrates an unexpected meeting between Hall, Aleksandr, and himself, unwittingly laying the groundwork for a tense confrontation.

As chaos ensues and the two factions erupt into violence, David seizes Buck as leverage, demanding they spare him. However, Aleksandr stands firm, warning David that he has no idea what trouble he has stumbled into. Hall seizes the upper hand by taking David hostage, torturing him for information about Claire’s photographs. Just when all seems lost, an unexpected intruder storms into Hall’s warehouse, dispatching his guards with ruthless efficiency. To David’s astonishment, this mysterious figure is none other than Claire herself, who has been orchestrating events from the shadows.

With Claire’s return, a renewed sense of purpose ignites within David, readying them both for a final showdown against their enemies, Aleksandr and Hall’s heavily armed entourage. Before they embark on this perilous journey, they take a moment to reflect on their cherished memories as a couple, knowing their impending confrontation is just around the corner.
