He pulls a gun and takes the passenger hostage in a field. Watch the trailer here.

Rachel, Jack and Ashley, Too  A lonely teenager Rachel attempts to connect with her favourite pop-star Ashley (Cyrus) with a toy-robot that Ashley has launched, called Ashley Too. However, behind her seemingly perfect life, Ashley is seen battling depression. The fragile condition starts affecting the responses of the robot-doll, which short circuits on Rachel and her friend.
