B&IFF: Dead of Winter

Witness British screen-legend Emma Thompson as you’ve never seen her before in this tense, gripping, and icy thriller...

When she’s unexpectedly hit by a blizzard, grief-stricken loner Barb (Thompson) gets lost among the backroads near a Minnesotan lake.

While stopping to ask for help at a remote cabin in the woods, Barb discovers a young woman (Laurel Marsden), who has been kidnapped by an armed and desperate couple (Judy Greer, Marc Menchaca), intent on murder.

Isolated in the desolate frozen wilds and without cell service, Barb realises she is this woman’s only hope of survival.

From Irish director Brian Kirk (My Boy Jack) and featuring a career-best performance from Thompson, this gritty, pulse-pounding trip is guaranteed to have you on the edge of your seat.
