The Snare (2026)

The Snare is a dramatic thriller centered on Dani, a high-achieving straight-A student whose life is upended when she is arrested for possession of a small amount of drugs. Rather than facing standard juvenile justice procedures, the police pressure her into becoming an informant, thrusting her into a dangerous and high-stakes world that blurs the lines between law enforcement and criminal underworlds.

This forced partnership places Dani in a moral gray area where she must navigate trust issues, surveillance, and the constant threat of retaliation from the very people she is supposed to be helping catch. The narrative explores the psychological toll of coercion and the erosion of innocence as Dani struggles to maintain her academic standing and personal safety while gathering evidence against local dealers.
