Their risks begin to mount, threats from police, fellow refugees and ruthlessly exploitative traffickers are starting to close in.

Synopsis

When London couple Louise and Clare book a boat trip to recover from personal tragedy, their trip of a lifetime through the Scottish Highlands soon descends into a hellish ordeal as they delve further into the wilds. They are confronted by layer upon layer of jeopardy from a variety of sources, but neither our heroes nor the audience can tell which threat will ultimately prove decisive. With many twists along the way we’re kept guessing until the very end. A psychological thriller built around a strong central relationship between two very different yet sympathetic characters. Think “Deliverance” meets “Rosemary's Baby”.
