A group of former friends finds the same note in their lockers telling them to go to an abandoned house in the middle of the night. They show up, and find themselves in the very room where their friend Dani died years ago. As they confront long-buried secrets, uninvited guests—both spectral and real—force them to face the messy, often painful realities of growing up.

The Broken Window asks: how do you move forward when the past refuses to let go?
