๐ Plot Overview
In 1968, Iris Campbell and her fiancรฉ Paul attend the opening ceremony of the Skyview, a high-rise restaurant tower. At the dance party, Iris has a premonition of a chandelier's shard cracking the glass floor beneath the guests while a gas leak explodes, collapsing the tower and killing everyone. Wikipedia+1MySA+1
In the present, college student Stefani Reyes suffers from recurring nightmares about the collapse. Realizing that the nightmares are linked to her maternal grandmother, Iris, she returns home seeking answers and is greeted by her father, Marty, and her estranged brother, Charlie. The siblings visit their uncle Howard, aunt Brenda, and cousins Erik, Julia, and Bobby. When Stefani asks Howard about Iris, he explains that Iris subjected him and Stefani's mother Darlene to an overprotective upbringing, then became reclusive, causing Darlene to abandon the family. Brenda helps Stefani find letters from Iris, leading her to a fortified cabin where Iris now lives.Wikipedia+1MySA+1
Terminally ill, Iris tells Stefani she disrupted Death's design by preventing the tower's collapse, saving the lives of everyone there that night. Wikipedia+1mint+1
