FRAMELINE 50: A Safe Distance

Deserted deep in the woods on an anniversary camping trip, Alex is abandoned by her sulking boyfriend after refusing his marriage proposal. Stranded and shaken, she stumbles upon Kianna and her boyfriend Matt, an off-the-grid couple whose carefree, creative lifestyle feels like an antidote to her unraveling reality. Drawn to Kianna’s charisma, Alex quickly finds herself pulled into their intimate world.

Beneath the charm lies something darker. As secrets surface and tensions mount, Alex realizes that not all is as it seems. Desire, control, and emotional entrapment begin to blur, pulling her deeper into a dangerous dynamic. A Safe Distance is a sapphic psychological thriller with a sharp feminist edge — a slow burn exploration of power, intimacy, and the seductive pull of reinventing yourself.
