EXHIT

EXHIT is a psychological thriller by Patrick Astwood, set entirely in an apartment. The film follows Jake Vass, a 35-year-old recluse battling stage 3 cancer. Despairing and isolated, Jake hires a hitman via the dark web to end his life. But when he miraculously enters remission and tries to cancel the hit, his fixer is murdered, and the irreversible contract triggers a terrifying countdown.

Trapped in paranoia and drug-induced visions, Jake spirals into chaos as reality collapses around him. The film culminates in a violent, tragic confrontation with his nurse and lover, Anna. Stylistically inspired by Rear Window, Pi, and Caché, EXHIT explores fate, guilt, and the illusion of control through claustrophobic cinematography, hallucinatory sound design, and a brooding techno-orchestral score.

Produced under Asunder Films, it embodies bold storytelling and micro-budget filmmaking with high artistic ambition.
