⭐ Story

After surviving the deadly ice roads of Canada, Mike McCann believes he’s left that life behind. But when an international engineering mission in Greenland goes disastrously wrong, Mike is called back for one last job.

A collapsing ice shelf traps dozens of workers above a volatile methane field. The only way out is a rapidly melting temporary ice route that wasn’t meant to exist.

With mercenaries hunting the convoy to cover up corporate crimes, Mike must lead a group of drivers across unstable ice, violent storms, and impossible odds — where every crack in the road could be the last.

• Grounded, realistic action, relying on physics and consequence.

• Liam Neeson at peak grit, weary but unbreakable.

• Minimal CGI, practical stunts that feel dangerous.

• Themes of responsibility and sacrifice, not hero fantasy.

•

🎭 Performances
