Synopsis by Bernadette McCallion
This made-for-television movie is an action-thriller set in the mountains. David Hasselhoff stars as a diamond smuggler who crashes his plane into the snowy mountains to escape capture. His reckless move sets off an avalanche that traps him, along with a father (Michael Gross) and his kids, under the snow. The movie follows the family as they battle to survive both Mother Nature and the criminal-minded Hasselhoff.
