After her husband deserts her, working-class mother Ray Eddy is in great need of money to find a home. Lured by the possibility of easy cash, Ray joins Lila, a widowed Mohawk who earns a living by smuggling immigrants from Canada to the U.S. across the St. Lawrence.
With over two decades as a supporting character actor behind her, the brilliant Melissa Leo took the lead in this reservation thriller, earning her first Oscar® nod. An impressive debut that hums with tension, Courtney Hunt’s Frozen River is an authentic, desolate look at life on the poverty line.
