Storyline
In the remote mountains of Colorado, Lee Hughes readies the resort he oversees in the off-season for the arrival of his estranged daughter, Megan. His criminal lifestyle contributed to the gradual unravelling of their relationship, as his wife’s death left him incapable of raising a young Megan. Megan, reluctant to spend the weekend with her father, is encouraged by her girlfriend, Lane, to make the trip. Upon arrival, Megan and Lane find three men from her father’s past have tracked Lee down in search of cash he made off with after a heist years prior. With Lee dead, Megan and Lane’s badly timed weekend throw them into a cat and mouse chase in an empty lodge and miles from help.
