A Rare Breed
Hikers Mia (Jessie Mei Li) and Erin (Danielle Galligan) stumble across a log cabin, miles off the grid and buried deep in the forest. There they discover Ray (Iain Glen), a grizzled, dangerous veteran, who has taken a seemingly innocent young girl, Chloe (Katelyn Rose Downey), hostage.
Mia and Erin can’t help but intervene – an ill-advised attempt to rescue Chloe soon sees them also captured, and they start to realise there are far bigger events at play.
When the cabin is ferociously attacked by a shadowy group of mercenaries, the girls find themselves caught in a full-blown siege. And that’s when Chloe begins to reveal her true powers…
From award winning short filmmaker Sam Johnson, A Rare Breed is a gripping, surprising, and propulsive sci-fi thriller.
