After a minor infraction brings her before a questionable judge, archery champion Lauren Pierce (a breakthrough performance from Bailey Noble) lands in a corrupt juvenile correctional facility in the wilderness, run by warden Bob Patrice (Bill Sage) and his son Michael (Michael Grant Terry), whose tactics and motives are increasingly suspect. She escapes with Rebecca (Jeanine Mason), a fierce but alluring inmate, and together they must survive the desperate warden who bow-hunts his prey to ensure his secret stays buried. Based on true events, this coming-of-age indie action film (with romantic undertones and a little social awareness) is thoroughly gripping. Beautifully shot, with a cast who all deliver exceptional performances, Weiss again confirms that her talents as a director are right on target. (Mill Valley Film Festival)
