“Gone” is a psychological thriller directed by Heitor Dhalia, starring Amanda Seyfried as Jill Parrish, a woman whose traumatic past comes back to haunt her when she believes her sister has been kidnapped by the same man who abducted her years earlier.
The story begins with Jill, a young woman who had been abducted by a serial killer a year prior and managed to escape. Despite the police’s belief that Jill’s abduction was a figment of her imagination, she knows the truth, and her life is marked by paranoia and fear.
When her sister, Molly (played by Emily Wickersham), goes missing under what Jill believes are similar circumstances to her own abduction, Jill takes matters into her own hands, convinced the same killer is responsible. She embarks on a desperate search to find her sister before it’s too late, while dealing with her own unresolved trauma and mistrust of the police.
“Gone” keeps the audience on edge, with Seyfried delivering a solid performance as the determined and haunted Jill. The film blends suspense with psychological drama as Jill races against time, and her search for answers leads her to question everything—her own sanity, the motivations of those around her, and whether she’s really as capable as she believes.
The film’s strength lies in its exploration of trauma, survival, and the lengths to which someone will go to protect their loved ones. While “Gone” is filled with suspenseful twists, its focus on Jill’s emotional journey elevates the tension throughout the film.
