Movie identification help – opening scene: girl running in forest at night, leaves personal item on tree
Post: Hi, I’m trying to find a movie I watched years ago (around 2005–2015, possibly American).
I only remember the opening scene:
A young woman (around 18–25) is running through a forest at night.
She is injured / possibly tortured and clearly in distress.
At first, you cannot see who is chasing her.
The camera alternates between her face and shots from behind.
She seems to deliberately leave a personal item (like a bracelet or necklace that someone who knows her would recognize) hanging on a tree branch as a clue.
The scene is very tense and dark.
After this opening, the story seems to shift to another character (possibly a male), and it becomes a thriller/mystery involving a killer.
I only saw the beginning, so I don’t know what happens later.
Does anyone recognize this movie?
