Traumatized since childhood by her brother's accidental death, Danika Merrick (Marisa Tomei) hallucinates a bank robbery and quits her job. Despite support from her three children and loving husband, Randy (Craig Bierko), Danika continues to experience unnerving visions. She seeks help from therapist Evelyn Harris (Regina Hall). But pervasive reports of violent incidents involving children make Danika fear for her own family, and she grows increasingly paranoid, worrying she may be going insane.

Plot

Danika is a thirty-five year old overprotective mother with a beautiful family composed of her successful husband Randy, two sons - the teenager Kurt and the little Brian, and one teenager daughter - Lauren. Danika is disturbed and near a breakdown, having dark and terrifying nightmares and daydreams; distracted in her work and consequently committing mistakes; and under psychiatric treatment with Dr. Evelyn. Her problems originated when her husband cheated on her with the nanny of their children, breaking her confidence in him. The lack of attention caused by her disturbed mind leads her family into tragedy.
