Tom Ludlow (Keanu Reeves) is a Los Angeles cop who has spent his life never having had to reach across the abyss from his world to the other. Ludlow's life, however, becomes cheerless, dark, and deadly, after the death of his beloved wife. Ludlow is pressed into action when he is framed for murder by those close to him. Deeper and more profound themes are interwoven in this story of a man's struggle for meaning in a world that is increasingly controlled by outside forces.
