Disclaimer will tell the tale of documentary filmmaker Catherine (Blanchett) who receives a mysterious novel titled The Perfect Stranger on her nightstand.

Catherine is described as ‘a successful and respected television documentary journalist’ who has built a career out of revealing the transgressions of beloved institutions, before her whole life is upturned by the delivery.

At first intrigued by the novel, Catherine quickly discovers it is not fiction, but rather a recreation of the day Catherine ‘became hostage to a dark secret, a secret that only one other person knew – and that person is dead’, according to the synopsis.
