This compelling journey through the backwoods of America won the Grand Jury Prize at this year's Sundance Film Festival. WINTER'S BONE follows seventeen-year-old Ree Dolly as she sets out to track down her drug-dealing father who has put the family house up for his bail bond and then disappeared. If Ree fails to find him, her family will be evicted and homeless. Using the Ozark Mountains as a backdrop, director Debra Granik provides a portrait of a woman who is forced, through her own unconditional love, to sacrifice her future on the altar of family.

dir. Debra Granik, USA 2009, English, 35mm, 100 min
