Desperate to support his young daughter in 1933 Oregon amidst the height of the Great Depression, World War I veteran Samuel Murphy (Ethan Hawke) is jailed on trumped-up charges following an eviction altercation.

Accompanied by an Indigenous guide (Julia Jones) and flanked by suspicious armed guards, Samuel must brave brutal landscapes, treacherous river crossings, and rising paranoia among his crew to secure the haul and reunite with his daughter.
Padraic McKinley directs a gritty, high-stakes Depression-era heist drama and survival thriller that pairs rugged outdoor atmosphere with sharp, escalating tension.
From tense standoff negotiations in dense pine forests to perilous wilderness crossings where every step carries life-or-death consequences, this captivating period drama delivers a relentless test of endurance and fatherly devotion.
