QME co-founder
Kevin DeWalt of Minds Eye Entertainment says, "We are ecstatic at how the film has come together and elated to bring it to U.S. audiences this May. In a rousing time for female leads, Gina Carano delivers a nuanced performance. Doing the bulk of her own stunt work, she created a character who exudes both physical and mental strength. It was also a thrill to work with the incredible film icon Richard Dreyfuss who played our villain so magnificently."
VMI Worldwide President Andre Relis added "We're delighted to present the film for buyers during the market and highlight the incredible action sequences and the compelling fight Clair (Carano), embarks on to save her son."
After the death of a family member, ex-military specialist, Clair Hamilton, returns home from her tour in the Middle East. When word spreads about Clair's large inheritance, her son Charlie is kidnapped and held for ransom by a local gang led by a mysterious figure known only as "
Father". Desperate to save her son, Clair captures one of his kidnappers and forces him to lead her on a perilous journey deep into the Alaska Mountains. To rescue her son, she must form an unlikely alliance with the kidnapper and survive the wild of the far North.
Dreyfuss (Jaws, Mr. Holland's Opus) stars as "
Father" and Carano (Haywire, Fast & Furious 6) as Clair Hamilton. Fehr (Final Destination, "Roswell") plays Larsen, the kidnapper turned hostage. Rounding out the cast is Anton Gillis-Adelman ("Designated Survivor," Birthmarked) as Clair's son Charlie and Sydelle Noel ("Glow,"
