00:00Deep in the wilderness, a mother and her daughter live in constant fear, hiding from the man

00:04they once called family.

00:06Fresh out of prison and fueled by years of rage, her father is hunting them down, determined

00:11to uncover the truth or destroy it.

00:13But the past has a way of catching up.

00:16This is Before Your Father Finds Us, a tense and haunting thriller where survival comes

00:21at the cost of trust and family secrets can be deadly.

00:25The movie opens inside a high security prison in Idaho, where we're introduced to Mason,

00:30a former elite soldier who once served in Afghanistan.

00:34For the past 10 years, he's been locked up for stealing military weapons and trafficking

00:38them on the black market, a crime that erased everything he once stood for.

00:43Now after a decade behind bars, Mason sits before the parole board, hoping for a second chance.

00:50He claims he's a changed man, disciplined, remorseful, and determined to rebuild what's

00:56left of his life.

00:58More than anything, he wants to be with his wife, Sophia, and reconnect with his daughter,

01:03Emily.

01:04But the system doesn't see a reformed man, they still see a threat.

01:09His request for release is denied, and Mason is sent back to his cell.

01:14Shortly after his parole is denied, all hell breaks loose.

01:18Mason seizes a deadly opportunity, ambushing a prison guard and killing him during a routine

01:23shift change.

01:24Under the cover of darkness, he slips out of the maximum security facility unnoticed.

01:30By the time the alarm sounds, Mason is long gone.

01:33The escape sends shock waves through the system.

01:37Authorities issue a public warning.

01:38A highly dangerous fugitive is on the run.

01:41In response, the FBI assigns two top agents to lead the manhunt.

01:47Even to bring Mason back, dead or alive.

01:49Meanwhile, in the quiet town of Brookswood, Washington, life moves slower.

01:54Inside a small church, Sophia and her teenage daughter Emily sit quietly as a priest delivers

02:00a sermon on honesty and deception.

02:03For Sophia, the words hit too close to home.

02:06She spent years burying the truth about Mason, hoping her daughter would never have to know

02:11who he really was.

02:13Emily notices her mother's unease and asks if everything is alright.

02:17As always, Sophia offers a calm smile, followed by another lie.

02:22Back in Idaho, Mason is already miles away, driving a stolen car with nothing but a name

02:28and a destination in mind.

02:29He's headed to Brookswood, desperate to find the only people who still matter to him.

02:34We cut to a quiet afternoon, where Sophia is catching up with her close friend, Amanda,

02:38over coffee.

02:39Their conversation turns to Steve, Sophia's new boyfriend.

02:43Amanda urges her to give him a real shot, reminding her that not every man is like her

02:48ex.

02:49He's kind, patient.

02:50He actually cares about you, Amanda says.

02:53But Sophia isn't fully convinced.

02:56Her smile is polite, but her hesitation says it all.

02:59Her heart is still guarded.

03:02Outside, Emily is hanging out nearby with her best friend, Tulo.

03:05They're deep in conversation, at first, but the mood shifts when Emily starts talking

03:10about her mom.

03:11She never listens, she says.

03:13It's like everything I do has to be her way.

03:16Tulo listens, trying to be supportive, as Emily vents the weight of always being controlled.

03:22Just then, Sophia steps outside, calling over to Emily.

03:26Can you grab my charger from the car?

03:27I left it in the glove box.

03:29Emily heads toward the parking lot.

03:31The air is still, too quiet.

03:33As she opens the car door, she senses something, and turns around.

03:37Standing a few steps away is a man, worn clothes, tired eyes, but calm.

03:42Emily, he says softly.

03:44It's me.

03:45Your father.

03:46Emily freezes.

03:47Her mind races.

03:49This can't be real.

03:50Her mom told her years ago.

03:52He was dead.

03:53I'm not, Mason says, almost reading her thoughts.

03:56He slowly pulls a folded, faded photo from his pocket.

03:59A picture of him holding her as a toddler.

04:02Regretfully.

04:03I've been gone a long time, and I can't change the past.

04:06But I needed to see you.

04:07Emily doesn't know what to say.

04:09Her chest tightens.

04:10Her father, a ghost from a story she never believed, is standing right in front of her.

04:15Reassuringly.

04:16I'm not here to hurt anyone, he adds.

04:19After a long pause, Emily walks forward and hugs him.

04:22It's brief.

04:23It's shaky.

04:24But it's real.

04:25Pull apart, Mason leans in and says quietly, please, don't tell your mom.

04:31Not yet.

04:32Later that evening, Sophia and Emily arrive home.

04:34As they settle in, Emily turns to her mother and asks a strange, unexpected question.

04:39What would she do if-

04:40If you found out, your father had been alive all this time.

04:44Sophia pauses, caught off guard.

04:46The question hits a nerve.

04:47She tries to keep her expression calm, but Emily can tell it rattled her.

04:51After a moment, Sophia opens up, just a little.

04:54She briefly mentions her complicated past with Mason, but avoids going too deep.

04:59Later that night, Sophia has dinner plans with Steve, so she gets ready while Emily prepares

05:03to stay over at her best friend Amanda's house.

05:06On the drive over, Sophia chats with her daughter about taking a short trip together, maybe just

05:10a few days away from the stress of the city.

05:13Emily lights up at the idea, and excitedly suggests Hawaii.

05:17But Sophia gently shuts it down, explaining that money is tight right now.

05:21They eventually agree on something more budget-friendly, a road trip to the Grand Canyon.

05:25Once they reach Amanda's house, I'll pick you up in the morning.

05:28That evening, Steve joins Sophia for dinner.

05:31It's the first time he's seen her in such a relaxed setting, and he's surprised to learn

05:35that Sophia's an incredible cook.

05:37They share laughter, wine, and for the first time, it feels like they're truly connecting.

05:42Meanwhile, at Amanda's house, Emily and her friend have a late night heart-to-heart.

05:46The conversation drifts toward their moms, and how both of them seem to be moving on.

05:51Emily wonders if her mom might actually be considering marriage again.

05:54But it's confusing, especially since Sophia and Mason's relationship had ended in so

06:00much pain.

06:01Back at Sophia's home, after a year of dating, Steve finally gathers the courage to propose.

06:07Not just for marriage, but to move in together and start a life as a real family.

06:10But Sophia doesn't say yes.

06:12In fact, she says no.

06:14Surprised and clearly hurt, Steve asks her why.

06:17Sophia hesitates, then chooses not to tell him the real reason.

06:20The truth about Mason.

06:21Instead, she brushes it off, leaving Steve unsure, and Sophia carrying a secret she's

06:26not yet ready to reveal.

06:28After Sophia told Steve she needed time to think about his offer to move in together,

06:32they parted ways for the night.

06:33Meanwhile, Amanda was at home watching TV when a breaking news report appeared.

06:38Mason had escaped from prison.

06:40She immediately tried to call Sophia to warn her, but the call came too late.

06:43Mason had already arrived at Sophia's house.

06:45When Sophia opened the door, she was surprised, stunned.

06:49Standing in front of her was the man she hadn't seen in over 10 years.

06:52She expressed her shock at him finding her, even after she had changed her name.

06:55Mason remained calm.

06:56He said nothing stays hidden forever.

06:58He knew about the testimony, and that she had been forced into it.

07:01He told her he had already forgiven her.

07:03When he tried to enter the house, Sophia blocked the doorway.

07:06She denied him entry, but told him to return the next morning at 10 o'clock.

07:10Mason stared at her in silence for a moment, then turned and walked away.

07:13Still shaken, Sophia saw Amanda's missed call and returned it.

07:17Amanda began explaining the news, but Sophia told her Mason had already shown up at her

07:20home.

07:21Realizing how serious things had become, she warned her to stay alert and began packing

07:25a bag, preparing to leave town once again.

07:27Just as she was nearly finished packing, Sophia received a call from Agent Farnsworth of the

07:31FBI.

07:32He informed her that Mason was in the area and promised that a team would be nearby.

07:36He told her not to leave the house and assured her they were doing everything they could.

07:40Sophia didn't trust the words.

07:41She felt the system had already failed to keep her safe.

07:44After hanging up, she carefully checked the windows, scanning the area for any sign of

07:48Mason.

07:49When she was sure the street was clear, she stepped outside, got into the stolen vehicle,

07:53and began driving.

07:54Her destination was Amanda's house, the only place she felt she might have a few moments

07:58of safety to figure out what to do next.

08:00Meanwhile, Emily had started to realize the danger her father posed, though she still didn't

08:05fully grasp the extent of it.

08:07Her best friend, worried about Emily being separated, had given her a lipstick as a gift.

08:11They made a promise that no matter what happened, even if Emily had to move away, they would

08:15remain best friends.

08:17At the same time, Mason was keeping a close eye on Sophia's house.

08:20He made the decision to break in, but to his frustration, he couldn't find Sophia or

08:24Emily anywhere inside.

08:26While searching the house, he came across a photo of Steve, which only fueled his anger.

08:31Later, Sophia arrived at Amanda's home.

08:33Before going inside, she sent Steve a voice message, thanking him for the dinner that evening.

08:37Then she turned to Emily and told her they needed to leave town as soon as possible.

08:42Amanda, anxious for her friend's safety, gave Sophia the keys to a remote cabin that

08:46once belonged to her grandmother.

08:48After they got into the car, Emily confronted her mother, accusing her of lying and hiding

08:51the truth about her father being alive all these years.

08:54Sophia stood firm, explaining that keeping the truth from her was necessary to protect

08:58their safety and their lives.

09:00The next morning, Steve was at work with Amanda when he brought up Sophia's secretive behavior.

09:04He had many questions about what Sophia was hiding, but Amanda already knew Sophia's

09:08full story.

09:09Everything she had endured.

09:11Years earlier, Mason and Sophia had met while serving together in Afghanistan.

09:14During that time, Sophia discovered that Mason, along with other soldiers, was stealing

09:18military weapons and selling them on the black market.

09:21Determined to stop them, she reported the activity to the FBI and testified against Mason

09:26in court.

09:27As a result, Sophia entered the witness protection program.

09:29This is the reason Mason was now relentlessly pursuing her, driven by a desire for revenge.

09:34At the same time, Sophia and Emily arrived at a remote cabin, which was secured behind a barricade.

09:38While checking her phone, she received a text from Steve asking for their location so he could

09:43come to their aid.

09:44Sophia decided to keep their whereabouts hidden.

09:46Overwhelmed, Emily pressed her mother to finally reveal the truth about her and Mason's past.

09:51Sophia insisted she would explain everything once Emily turned 16, which only frustrated

09:55Emily who believed she was already old enough to know.

09:58Inside the cabin, Sophia searched and found a firearm for protection in case of an emergency.

10:03Back in town at Steve's house, Mason arrived unexpectedly.

10:06Steve confronted him, demanding to know where Emily and Sophia were hiding.

10:10Mason accused Steve of lying about having no knowledge of their location and launched

10:14into a verbal attack.

10:17Later, Mason accessed Steve's phone and sent a message posing as Steve, asking Sophia to

10:22disclose their exact location.

10:25At a secluded cabin, Sophia finally shares the truth with her daughter Emily.

10:29She tells Emily that Mason was once a kind and funny man, especially before Emily was

10:34born.

10:35But after she arrived, Mason's darker side came out.

10:39His anger grew violent and abusive.

10:41When Sophia uncovered Mason's illegal dealings within the military, she made the painful

10:45choice to testify against him, fully aware of the danger that decision would bring.

10:50Emily listens quietly, feeling the weight of her mother's story and the sacrifices made

10:55to keep them safe.

10:56As Sophia finishes, she senses Mason is closing in, through signal searches around the cabin.

11:02Texts from Steve come through, but none reveal their location.

11:06So she doubles down on securing the cabin, determined to protect Emily at all costs.

11:11In town, Amanda has an unexpected encounter with Mason.

11:14He demands to know Sophia's whereabouts and threatens harm if she doesn't cooperate.

11:18Amanda stays calm, hiding the truth, but quickly contacts and alerts the FBI, sharing Mason's

11:24vehicle details and asking to be notified if Sophia calls for help.

11:27Back at the cabin, Sophia and Emily barricade all entrances.

11:31That evening, after a simple dinner, Sophia begins teaching Emily how to handle a firearm,

11:36sharing skills she learned as a former Special Forces soldier.

11:40Emily is surprised and impressed by her mother's knowledge.

11:43The next morning, Steve arrives in a different, unrecognizable car.

11:47That night, strange noises outside wake Sophia and Emily.

11:50Sophia grabs her gun.

11:52Meanwhile, Amanda grows suspicious of Mason's car.

11:59When Amanda steps away briefly, Mason seizes the chance to search for her.

12:03Alarmed, Amanda calls the FBI with Sophia's location.

12:06Mason, having tracked the address, heads directly toward the cabin.

12:10Sophia and Emily set traps around the property to defend themselves.

12:14Shortly after, Amanda arrives at the cabin, but Mason pulls up behind her.

12:18While Emily is outside, trying to start a fire in the woods, Mason sneaks up and kidnaps

12:23her.

12:24Amanda and Sophia regroup, and Amanda shares that the FBI is on their way.

12:28Sophia's panic grows as she realizes Mason knows their exact location.

12:31She desperately searches nearby, while Mason watches, firing a warning shot, signaling Emily

12:37now belongs to him.

12:38Sophia refuses to give up without a fight.

12:41At that moment, two FBI agents arrive, having tracked Mason's vehicle.

12:45They find Steve tied up, and Mason nearby.

12:47Deep in the forest, Mason begins twisting the truth for Emily, telling her that her mother

12:52has been lying all these years, blaming her for Mason's ten years in prison and calling

12:57her a traitor.

12:59He loosens Emily's restraints, and a spark of hope lights up in her.

13:03She remembers the lipstick she once gave her best friend, and uses it to mark trees along

13:08their path, hoping Sophia will follow the trail and find them.

13:12Meanwhile, the two FBI agents meet with Amanda, who reveals that Mason has forcefully taken

13:17Emily and that Sophia is in desperate need of help.

13:21The agents immediately launch a high-stakes chase to track Mason down and rescue Emily.

13:28In the chaos, Sophia manages to injure Mason with an explosive device, creating an opening

13:33for their escape.

13:34They rush back toward the cabin, only to run into the FBI agents on the road.

13:40Amanda urges them, determined.

13:42We've got Mason within reach, head back to the cabin.

13:45But Mason strikes suddenly, killing one of the agents who nearly captured him.

13:50It's revealed that Mason and the fallen agent were once teammates in the same unit, and the

13:55person who betrayed their location was Agent Samuel.

13:59As tensions spike, Agent Farnsworth draws his weapon to intervene.

14:03But Mason kills Samuel and then Farnsworth as well.

14:06Later, Mason takes Steve hostage and confronts Sophia, threatening to kill him.

14:12Sophia, shaken but determined, tells Mason to end the fight.

14:16The real battle is between her and Mason.

14:19The two engage in a fierce hand-to-hand struggle, while Amanda steadies her aim, ready to shoot.

14:25During the fight, Mason steps on one of Sophia's cleverly placed traps, slowing him down.

14:31Just as Sophia moves in to finish it, the story closes, with Mason back behind bars.

14:37Meanwhile, Sophia sits quietly in a church, surrounded by the priest and others, asking

14:42for forgiveness.

14:43Not only for the lies she told, but for living under a false identity.

14:48She reveals her real name, Alex.

15:18Dr.
