After confirming that a missed period is indeed a pregnancy, Alice seeks help from Jimmy McMann - her married boyfriend, the suspicious non-dependable nephew of a prominent political figure. He is unwilling to help her and threatens to ruin her life if she tries to involve him. Abortion is illegal, democracy is shattered, and privacy is in the past. Racing against the clock to get an abortion, Alice acquires contraband pills that at first appear to work. Over the course of the following day, something begins to grow inside her at an alarming rate. Entombed in her apartment, Alice discovers the medication has been tampered with and she must now face the sinister presence that is growing inside her womb before it takes control over her own body and life.
