The Girl in the Backseat

The Girl in the Backseat (2023) is a thriller you can watch online on iFILM. Director Nick Laurant puts Sofia in the worst possible situation from the opening act: she ends up an involuntary passenger of a stranger named Ryan, bound in the backseat with nowhere to go as he drives her somewhere she has no intention of being.

Helen Day leads the cast. The film gets most of its tension from confinement — nearly all the action takes place inside the car, turning a cramped back seat into the whole world. A human trafficking thriller that works because the geography is suffocating: no witnesses, no phone, just Sofia looking for the one mistake Ryan might make.
