Good premise, awful execution.
College girl goes home to see her dying mother, gets caught in a snowstorm at a rest stop, finds a young girl in a cage in the back of the fan and has to determine how far she is willing to go to save someone else.
Juvenile, lazy writing. If you had told me a teenage boy wrote this, I would have believed you. Repetitive. Cringey, try-hard dialogue.
Unnecessary misogyny, racial slurs and ableism.
This is not good writing. Maybe it makes a better movie.
