What Keeps You Alive

True love can’t always be trusted. This discomforting life lesson is learned in the most pulverizing way when Jules (Brittany Allen) finds herself barely escaping death at the hands of her wife Jackie (Hannah Emily Anderson), deep in the country on the eve of their one-year wedding anniversary. Shocked, heartbroken and terrified, she tries to piece together the whys and whats of her situation while doing everything she can to simply stay alive. An electrifyingly intense game of interpersonal cat-and-mouse begins as literal blood, sweat and tears – and heaps of adrenaline – flow in rivers. (Fantasia International Film Festival)
