FREIGHT

 

A long-haul trucker's troubled past and unconventional present collide in a perilous journey of redemption and self-discovery as she races to finish a treacherous delivery in time to save her job.

Set in the icy mountains of the Pacific Northwest, Teddy Gonzalez, a fiercely independent, long-haul trucker has three days to deliver her freight or risk losing everything. With her loyal companion Loo, her parrot and oldest friend, Teddy navigates the risks of a life on the road, while finding community in the company of misfits and outliers. Careful to keep her focus on her work and to avoid the painful wreckage of her troubled past, an unexpected call from her sister threatens to send her spiraling out of control.
