Story
Inside a desolate bar in the middle of nowhere, bartender Hank and his only customer, Jonas, a stranger passing through, settle in for a long evening to ride out the howling wind storm. Ruby, another stranger, enters, and over drinks the three open up about their pasts, and what lead each of them to this moment. Trapped together against the storm, seemingly innocent conversation escalates into life or death struggles.
