Synopsis by Maggie Sadler
A down-and-out drifter wanders back to his remote Canadian hometown amidst an intense blizzard, seeking shelter at the local watering hole of his youth. When the wizened bartender demands repayment for the debt the drifter owes, the drifter counters instead with an offer to tell a story. As the night progresses, a sinister tale of betrayal, violence, and mistaken identities swirls with the snow, unsettling all who find themselves in the bar for the evening. Directed by Cody Calahan. RJ Mitte, Peter Outerbridge, and Ari Millen co-star.
