Set over one night as a vicious storm sweeps across the Scottish highlands, two criminal brothers on the run are forced to seek sanctuary in a remote farmhouse. Taking the resident family hostage, they soon find themselves in a deadly struggle for survival, where the family set up is not quite as straightforward as it first appears to be. With the police and old ‘friends’ closing in fast, they must find a way to escape this new nightmare and in the process confront issues in their own fractured relationship.
