Snow Falls

In the deep freeze of a New Year’s Eve snowstorm, a remote cabin becomes the unlikely stage for a night that blurs the line between hospitality and dread. The storm’s howling wind strips away the world outside, leaving the group of friends cut off from power, supplies, and any immediate rescue. The relentless white that surrounds the cabin feels both beautiful and threatening, turning a simple winter getaway into a claustrophobic test of endurance.

The six‑person dynamic is anchored by Andy, whose easygoing nature tries to keep spirits high, and Em, whose emotional intensity often pulls the group toward heightened sensitivity. Kit brings a restless energy, always willing to push boundaries, while River carries a personal tie to the place that adds a subtle undercurrent of responsibility. Eden, a medical student, offers a pragmatic counterbalance, insisting on rationing and caution as the cold deepens. Their friendships, forged over years of shared experiences, begin to reveal hidden cracks as the isolation intensifies.

As the storm presses on, the cabin’s flickering lights and dwindling provisions seed a creeping unease. The snow itself becomes a whispered threat, an ambiguous presence that fuels paranoid speculation and forces each character to confront their own fears and rationalizations. The atmosphere swells with a mix of quiet desperation and nervous humor, creating a tension that feels both intimate and universal: how far will ordinary people go when the world outside freezes over and the only sounds are the wind and their own racing thoughts?
