About
A young man holds on to hope after his mother vanishes in a snowstorm, while a long Colorado winter changes his relationship with his father.
High in the mountains, autumn is coming to an end and a family is getting ready for the long winter ahead. Then the mother disappears in the first snowstorm. Her son keeps hoping, and during a long winter in Colorado his bond with his father changes, along with how he sees the man he is becoming.
