A pair of desperate criminals attempt to make their way through the countryside in this bleak thriller scripted by Full Monty scribe Simon Beaufoy. Though ex-soldier Heaton (Kenneth Glenaan) seems fairly quick on his feet, that same certainly can't be said for his dimwitted sidekick, Spike (Michael Colgan), who accidentally shoots a farmer's daughter after the duo runs out of gas while driving through the rural landscape. Subsequently hunted by the vengeful Mr. Bellamy (David Bradley) and his bloodthirsty posse, the criminals make one last bid for survival in unfamiliar territory where the home team has a distinct and deadly advantage.
