Reluctant Witness is a thrilling mystery drama movie from 2015 starring Mia Kirshner, Madeleine Arthur, and Paul McGillion. The film is directed by Monika Mitchell and written by Shelley Gillen. The movie is about a young girl named Sam (Madeleine Arthur) who witnesses a murder but is too scared to testify in court. Mia Kirshner plays the role of Kate Greenway, the prosecutor who has to convince Sam to testify against the killer.

The opening scene is of a man running for his life in the middle of the night being chased by an assailant. The assailant then shoots the man, and the man dies in a pool of his own blood. The next day at school, Sam sees one of her classmates, who she recognizes as the killer from the night before. Sam is terrified and decides to keep quiet.

The story then moves to Kate Greenway's office, where she is preparing for the case. Kate is an experienced and successful prosecutor who is confident in her abilities. She is called to the scene of the crime, where she meets Detective David Garvin (Paul McGillion). They both begin investigating the case and try to find any leads that could help them identify the killer.

While investigating, Kate learns about Sam, who witnessed the murder. Kate is determined to get Sam to testify in court, but Sam is reluctant to speak up. She is scared and doesn't want to put herself or her family in danger. Kate tries to convince Sam that testifying is the right thing to do, but Sam still refuses.

As the investigation continues, Kate discovers a pattern in the killer's murders. The killer is targeting young women who resemble his ex-girlfriend. The ex-girlfriend had died in a car accident, and the killer blames her death on the young women he's been killing. Kate and David try to track down the killer before he kills again.

Meanwhile, Sam starts receiving threatening messages, and she fears for her life. She confides in her best friend Alex (played by Lola Tash), who tries to help her. Alex is determined to find the killer and protect her friend.

As the trial approaches, Kate realizes that without Sam's testimony, the killer will walk free. She tries to find other evidence to convict him, but it's not enough. She has to convince Sam to testify, but time is running out. Sam finally decides to testify, but the killer's lawyer tries to discredit her testimony by portraying her as an unreliable witness.

The courtroom scenes are intense and filled with suspense. The killer's identity is revealed, and the audience is left on the edge of their seats, waiting to see if justice will be served.
