Die My Love plot recap, spoiler-light
Following the inheritance of a remote Montana home from a deceased uncle, Jackson relocates there from New York alongside his pregnant partner, Grace. Shortly after their arrival, the couple welcomes a baby boy. Initially, the rural setting offers a hopeful start, but tensions soon mount.
Jackson spends long hours away at work, leaving Grace to grapple with intense loneliness and abandonment. These feelings deepen when she discovers condoms in his car, sparking suspicions of infidelity. Compounding her stress are the recent death of Jackson's father, Harry, and the revelation that Jackson's uncle died by suicide in the very house they now inhabit.

Her behavior becomes increasingly erratic, marked by carrying knives, an affair with a passing motorcyclist, and throwing herself through a glass door. Despite continuous screaming matches, Jackson proposes marriage.
