ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
What happens when you become the prime suspect in a story you don’t fully understand?
In the midst of a creative crisis, stuck in the routine of his marriage and haunted by the aftermath of an accident, Frankie Armstrong —a writer in Manhattan— sees his world unravel when he meets Lauren McKellen, his enigmatic neighbor: a former model with a troubled past marked by abuse and scandal. What begins as a night of confessions and forbidden attraction quickly turns into a point of no return. The arrival of detectives, probing questions from the press, and growing doubts within his own home unleash chaos: Lauren has been found dead, and all eyes are on Frankie, the last person to see her alive. No one believes he’s innocent.
In Muerte sin testigo (Death Without Witness) —a psychological thriller set in New York—, Óscar Xavier Altamirano subverts genre expectations by juxtaposing human crisis with the usual suspects, in a plot where the line between truth and lies dangerously blurs.
