TWO FRIENDS

Wynn and Jack have been best friends since their first day of college, brought together by their shared love of the great outdoors.

THE ADVENTURE OF A LIFETIME

When they decide to canoe down the Maskwa River in northern Canada, they anticipate the ultimate wilderness adventure: no phones, no fellow travellers, no going back.

A WILD RIDE

But as a wildfire makes its way towards them, their trip becomes a desperate race for survival. And when a man suddenly appears, claiming his wife has vanished, the fight against the raging flames becomes a much deadlier game of cat and mouse.
