Set up as a love story about city girl Sydney, a relapsed drug addict who is convinced to journey to a country cabin by her fiancé Tom, in order to clean up. However, their plans of rehabilitation are suddenly made moot when an avalanche buries them alive. Trapped in a small pocket of air, the two soon realize that any attempt to free Sydney will bury and kill Tom.
