When going home from doctor's appointment, Esther Woodhouse is brutally attacked, which leads to her miscarriage. She is advised to join a support group that turns out to be her consolation. However, Esther does not expect that spending time with this group may result in danger...

Proxy is too many conflicting movies crammed into a daunting 2 hour run time. Zack Parker juggles too many plates at once, and they all come crashing down simultaneously.
