Sarah Light, a woman haunted by a lifetime of abuse, struggles with dissociative identity disorder, a condition that splinters her psyche into distinct personalities. Among them, Kristina, a ruthless vigilante driven by a thirst for justice, begins a campaign of violent retribution against figures that resemble Sarah’s abusive parents. Meanwhile, Jackie, a childlike persona embodying Sarah's innocence, desperately seeks safety and comfort amidst the chaos. As the bodies pile up, Sarah grapples with fleeting control over her actions, aided by the compassionate but overwhelmed Dr. Drury, her therapist. Through flashbacks, Sarah’s deeply buried traumas surface, revealing a harrowing childhood that forged her fractured mind. Kristina’s rage threatens to destroy everyone in her path, including Sarah herself, while Jackie’s fear underscores the emotional devastation of their shared past. In a desperate bid to reconcile her fragmented selves, Sarah must delve into her darkest memories and confront her own demons. Her journey toward self-acceptance and healing culminates in a final, harrowing confrontation with Kristina, forcing Sarah to decide between vengeance and redemption. With her identity—and her sanity—hanging by a thread, Sarah's battle is not just for survival, but for a chance at peace.
