◆Plot summary◆
FBI female agent Jelena Scott (Angelina Jolie) is decisive and alert, and handles cases unconventionally. In particular, her intuition often becomes her only clue to uncover the mystery of a case. Based on this, the Montreal police in Canada, who were struggling with local murder cases, had to seek help from foreign aid like Irina Scott, hoping that her arrival would be helpful in catching this serial killer.
Shortly after joining the case, the meticulous Irina Scott discovered that this chameleon-like serial killer was killing people as he traveled across North America (hopefully the killer would not use any weapons before committing the crime). The victim reads and writes his books), and often after the murder, he assumes the identity of the deceased, enters their life before the murder, uses the victim's credit card, and lives in their home for weeks or even months until he finds his next target and moves on. .
The huge pressure to solve the case made every agent try their best, and Irina Scott's strange ideas and distinctive behavior caused her colleagues to become increasingly alienated from her. Underlying her indifferent work style is her immense enthusiasm for her work, and she is more willing to enjoy the fun of handling cases alone. At this time, Irina Scott encountered a complex and romantic relationship. The other person's perfection made her lose her guard and made her doubt her delicate and sensitive intuition. Alone in a strange city where no one can trust or rely on, Irina Scott suddenly found that she was in a dangerous relationship. The suspect seemed to be around, and this time it seemed that he was targeting herself. .

◆Behind the scenes◆
Director D.J. Caruso felt that the serial killer in the movie committed murders for nearly 20 years, and then continued to live as the victim, just like a hermit crab. When the shell can no longer accommodate him, he will leave to find his next target. "I am very interested in the concept of identity - who we are and who we think we are," the director said when talking about the key word of the film - identity. "The killer is constantly taking over the identity of others and pretending to be others. His identity is not only his identity before becoming a victim, but in his opinion, after he enters the victim's life and then imagines making the victim's life better than before, this is the source of his happiness and enjoyment. "So the effective way to solve the case is to find the cause of the murderer's behavior, study his thoughts, and finally find the real murderer."
Producer Mark Condon said: "We are in an era full of crises, and this movie is about expressing this feeling of panic.
Jon Berkenkamp, ??the screenwriter who adapted Michael Pye's novel into a screenplay, said of the serial killer: "The killer in Michael's novel is a unique kind of killer who makes you Curious, what drives him to do this? What's hidden behind him? ", "A good horror novel is like a math puzzle that you always want to solve. "The mystery in the movie is like a math puzzle for the FBI agent played by Angelina Jolie to solve.
