In “The Crowded Room”, a lone hiker named Danny Sullivan (Tom Holland) is arrested for his involvement in a shooting in 1979 New York City. Through interviews with interrogator Rhea Goodwin (Amanda Seyfried), viewers learn the story of Sullivan’s life. Her mysterious past comes to the fore, and a series of twists and turns lead her to a life-changing revelation.
