After a while, a car starts to overtake them. There’s nobody behind the wheel. The teenagers panic and try to get back on the highway. But the road does not let them go. A hysterical phone call is the last their parents hear of them. The next morning, the police are puzzled. The search the surroundings and find traces that lead them to a ten year old disappearance case, where two sisters went missing without a trace.
