As a child, Eve Macarro (Victoria Comte) witnessed her father murdered by members of a mysterious cult, led by a figure known as The Chancellor (Gabriel Byrne). Eve is taken in by the Ruska Roma, who trained her father to be an assassin, and it was him falling in love with her mother, a member of the cult, that led to both of their deaths.
When Eve (Now played by Ana de Armas) finds a member of the cult during one of her hit jobs, her interest in taking revenge is renewed, but The Director (Anjelica Huston) refuses to help her since there is a truce between the cult and the Ruska Roma. Eve gets help from Winston (Ian McShane) in finding Daniel Pine (Norman Reedus), a fellow assassin with connections to the cult. The cult members incapacitate Eve and Pine, and they kidnap Pine’s daughter Ella (Ava Joyce McCarthy).
Eve is later directed to a hidden location in the Austrian mountains in the town of Halstatt, which is where the cult is located. She is found by The Chancellor, who knows who Eve is and also lets her know that his right hand woman, Lena, is her long lost sister who was forced to stay with the cult while their father took Eve to have a better life. Lena gets killed under The Chancellor’s orders while Eve escapes. The Director sends John Wick (Keanu Reeves) to stop Eve and avoid a war between the cult and the Ruska Roma, but after a fight, John agrees to let Eve take her revenge before midnight.
After taking out all of The Chancellor’s goons, Eve confronts the man, who says that nothing will change with his death, but she shoots him in the head anyway. Eve frees Ella and sends her back to be with her father, while a $5 million contract on Eve goes out since she broke the truce between the cult and the Ruska Roma.
