Synopsis
Hair of the Bear
Refusing to go to school, anxious 16-year-old Tori is driven by her mother to her grandfather's rustic cabin in Eastern Manitoba on the remote American-Canadian border. As Tori struggles to adapt to the woodsman ways of her French Canadian grandfather, she ultimately must embrace the outdoors if she is to survive the deadly game of cat and mouse she is thrust into.
The Candidate
Jonas Bechmann, a defense attorney, is a man of the system. Until the day he himself is accused of murder. Taking matters into his own hands, he throws himself into the hunt for a group of blackmailers who threaten to expose him as the killer. But nothing is what it appears to be, and the blackmail links back to his father's death under mysterious circumstances a year and a half earlier.
