Synopsis
A noir crime drama set on the frozen corridor of Northern Ontario. A stolen shipment and a run to collect the money themselves turns into a night of murder and pursuit — and into a reckoning between a daughter and the mother who repeats her. The men who own the trade are the danger; the inheritance of addiction is the trap.
