Bridport Electric Palace
BARB (Emma Thompson), the widowed owner of a small fishing tackle store, sets off on a pilgrimage to Lake Hilda, in remotest northern Minnesota. This is where she took her first vacation with her recently deceased husband and this is where she has promised to scatter his ashes. Hit by a blizzard, she gets lost among backroads near the lake and stops for help, at an isolated cabin in the woods. Here she discovers a young woman, LEAH (Laurel Marsden), is being held captive by a desperate armed couple. The kidnappers, known only as PURPLE LADY (Judy Greer) and CAMO JACKET (Marc Menchaca) are armed and intent on murder. Spurred on by the memory of her husband, but hours from the nearest town and without any cell phone service, Barb realises she is the young woman’s only hope of survival. What follows is a merciless thriller that plays out in an epic wilderness, with a beautiful love story at its heart.
