10x10 is a 2018 psychological thriller film directed by Suzi Ewing. The film stars Luke Evans and Kelly Reilly.[2][3][4] It was written and produced by Noel Clarke, through his production company Unstoppable Entertainment.

Plot

The plot revolves around Lewis (played by Luke Evans), a seemingly ordinary man who kidnaps a woman named Cathy (played by Kelly Reilly). Lewis holds Cathy captive in a soundproof 10x10-foot room in his home, and the reasons behind his actions become gradually revealed as the story unfolds.

Cathy, however, is not an easy victim. Despite being confined, she fights back against her captor, turning the tables on Lewis. As the tension escalates, the film explores the psychological and physical struggle between the captor and captive, unraveling the mystery behind Lewis' motivations and Cathy's resilience. The narrative takes unexpected turns, keeping viewers on edge as they discover the truth about the characters and the reasons for their harrowing ordeal.
