An isolated and friendless female security guard finds a glimmer of hope when a charming bartender shows her kindness.

Fallen is a collection of ten vignettes observing the unfiltered and unspoken thoughts of young adults in the city. The inner monologues are perverse, bitter, determined, hopeless, comedic, and honest, containing intimate thoughts that cover a diverse range of subjects and circumstances. Filmed on an iPhone, the film is an experimental attempt to capture stream of consciousness.

Marcela Borges and her growing family’s idyllic weekend quickly turn into every family’s worst nightmare when masked gunmen barge into their Florida suburban home. With gunshots piercing their walls, a newly pregnant Marcela, her husband, and their young son are left with no choice but to comply with their captors’ demands: surrender $200,000 or their lives. But with no means of accessing that sort of money, Marcela faces insurmountable odds to protect her family from their violent captors and must make the life and death decisions to keep her family safe.
