Circle of Crime

The film 'Circle of Crime' begins with a glimpse into the life of John, a desperate man who is struggling to save his ailing wife, Sarah. Consumed by the urgency of her situation, John makes the difficult decision to take a life insurance policy, which requires him to be insured for six months before the payout can be made. The irony of this situation is not lost on the viewer, as it becomes apparent that Sarah is on the brink of death, and the policy payout will potentially come too late to save her. However, the rules of the insurance policy are not as straightforward as they seem. In order to collect on the policy, John must be deceased or have a terminal illness diagnosed. As he delves deeper into the complexities of the policy, he discovers that his only option is to take out a loan from a shady organization. The loan sharks offer him a hefty sum to cover his wife's medical expenses, but at a steep interest rate that John is aware he can never repay. Meanwhile, in a separate storyline, a serial killer known as "The Phantom" escapes from prison. The Phantom is a calculating and methodical killer who leaves a trail of bodies in his wake, but is somehow always one step ahead of the law.
