Film Synopsis

When two Marine Archeologists die on the job, a rumour spreads throughout their small Northern Alberta town of a hidden treasure buried on their farm. Ten years later, 18-year-old Ridley is haunted by the death of his parents and hopelessly dreams of going to college and moving on with his life. Unfortunately, his 12-year-old sister, Amelia, is desperate to connect with their parents' memory and spends her days obsessively searching for the rumoured treasure. When a group of thieves (led by Ridley's ex-boyfriend) show up at the secluded property, intent on claiming the treasure for themselves, the siblings' relationship is challenged, and they are forced to face reality in order to survive.
