“One man's past. One boy's future.”
Drama
The rough-hewn boss of a lumber crew courts trouble when he steps in to protect the youngest member of his team from an abusive father.
VIBE
A raw, unflinching descent into the harsh realities of rural life, steeped in a palpable sense of dread and moral decay. It's a character-driven slow-burn, where every interaction feels charged with unspoken tension and the weight of difficult choices. Expect a bleak, yet powerfully acted, experience.
