Synopsis:
Facing a night on the street, by sheer
chance Logan finds Martin, the banker responsible for his sister’s death, and
tracks him onto a night-rider bus. His attempts at vengeance are thwarted by
increasingly strange interactions with the other passengers, including an
inquisitive nurse who insists she knows Logan, her jealous boyfriend, two
bickering teenagers and a pants-less homeless person whose unhinged religious
ramblings might have more truth to them than he lets on. Things take a turn for
the bizarre as Logan is knocked unconscious and awakes to find the line between
the past and present has fractured, as visions of his dead sister and vivid
memories begin to replay within the confines of the bus. As his hold on reality
begins to slip, Logan soon realizes he has met every single passenger before…
Reaching Distance stars Wade Briggs, Morgan Griffin, and Sophia Forrest.
