Through Ruth’s journey, we explore themes of resilience and agency in the face of an unpredictable future. While the story delves into dark themes, we believe THE THAW ultimately celebrates our enduring spirit, hardiness, and creativity. We hope you enjoy this chilling nightmare!

Inspired by Vermont’s legendary frozen hill folk, this horror folktale delves into the emotional and physical extremes a 19th-century family endures to survive a changing climate—and the devastating consequences of humanity’s insatiable hunger.

But we’re so grateful for this opportunity to showcase a film we deeply love, and we’re overjoyed that a wider audience will finally get to experience the incredible artistry and teamwork of THE THAW’s cast and crew.

Given the heartbreaking fires in the LA area and the state of the world right now, it’s hard to focus on promotion.

Thanks for the invite!
