The premise

To escape her abusive boyfriend, Kat joins a wilderness expedition with a group of women, all of whom are struggling with the uncertainty of life. What was supposed to be an opportunity for personal discovery quickly becomes a fight for survival, forcing each one to discover the strength within themselves that they didn't even know they possessed. While being brazenly chased by a pack of predators, the strong quickly set themselves apart from the weak. In a battle of will, stamina, and heart, these very virtues present themselves at the most crucial moment. With death looming, each is left with what is truly important - the strength within oneself.

Horror Vault's take

Fleeing a dangerous relationship, Kat joins an all-women wilderness retreat hoping to find herself — only for the remote landscape to become a hunting ground. A group of relentless predators turns what was meant to be a journey of healing into a raw, desperate fight for survival. The film strips its characters down to their core, testing every limit as the hunters close in and safety feels impossibly far away. Equal parts chase thriller and character study, it asks what ordinary women are truly capable of when their lives depend on it.
