Having retired to bed early to prepare for a dawn ascent, Kelly is woken by the screams of her co-climber Sophie, who had stayed up to enjoy a smoke with a group of men they had met earlier. Desperate to get to her friend, Kelly runs deep into the forest using the night vision from her camera to guide the way. She arrives just in time to see Sophie’s lifeless body being thrown from a ledge, a horror she captures on camera. As she turns to leave, the men hear Kelly below and give chase. Running through their camp, she desperately grabs whatever climbing gear she can and begins free-climbing the foot of the mountain in order to escape the pack. As day turn to freezing night, she finds herself both mentally and physically exhausted. But there is nothing she can do. If she’s to escape this deadly game of cat & mouse she must dig deep, do all she can to survive, and climb...

Sami, a Syrian refugee in the UK, and Bryony, an aimless young librarian, embark on a highly personal quest to preserve a bell from a demolished Christian church. What begins as a civic protest quickly becomes a criminal case when they accidentally near fatally injure a security guard, and find themselves on the run from the police. However, our accidental heroes’ fate is sealed by a kindly police sergeant who is moved by their mission, and our odd-couple achieve their goal of saving the bell and reminding the town they both call home about the importance of remembering its own story.
