Storyline:
She hit rock bottom... Then she put on skis.
A divorced single mother finds herself without a home and out of options. Her brother offers her a lifeline — but with one absurd condition: she must train for and complete a brutal 54-kilometer ski race across unforgiving terrain.
Untrained, unmotivated, and emotionally drained, she begins her journey — not just across the snow, but through grief, guilt, and self-doubt.
With every fall, every frozen breath, and every painful push forward, she discovers something far greater than shelter: the strength to fight for herself.
Because sometimes, the toughest races... lead you right back to who you are.
