Cold Road

Cold Road (2023) Taylor Kinequon, Samuel Hoeksema
Cold Road is a gripping survival thriller set in the unforgiving wilderness of the Arctic Circle. The film follows Sarah (played by an undisclosed actress), a skilled mountaineer and adventurer who, along with a small group of explorers, embarks on an ambitious expedition to chart an unmapped route through some of the harshest terrain on Earth. When a freak accident forces their plane to crash in the frozen tundra, the group is stranded with limited supplies and no way to communicate with the outside world.
As frigid temperatures set in and tensions rise, the survivors must rely on their instincts and the limited resources they have left to navigate the treacherous wilderness. Sarah, an experienced explorer, takes the lead, but as food dwindles and exhaustion sets in, it becomes clear that the fight for survival isn’t just against natureโit’s between them.
Isolation begins to unravel their bonds, revealing hidden secrets, personal grudges, and the dark side of their personalities. Cold Road is not just a race against the elements, but also a psychological battle for power, confidence, and ultimately, life.
Directed by Alexandra West, Cold Road is a chilling story of human endurance, featuring stunning cinematography, intense performances, and a thrilling narrative that explores the limits of human survival in the face of nature’s harshest conditions.
In the coldest places, survival means facing both nature and oneself.
