Synopsis

Isaac Manyfeathers has escaped from a detention centre and is on the run. Denying himself food and drink, his mission is twofold: to cut through the forest and reach his grandmother's home, and seek his spirit guide. Lenora is running, too. Life with her new step-family is less than idyllic and now their camping trip has turned sour. In a rash move to prove herself, she inadvertently places her life in desperate danger. While the search for each of them builds, the two teens are drawn together. Whether or not they are safer once they meet, is questionable in this psychological tale of suspense set in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies.
