60%Rotten Tomatoes
Four friends. A deadly secret. One choice.
Four best friends reunite in a remote cabin for the first time in two decades. They are not there to reminisce about the good old days, but rather, to sort out the deadly details of one fateful afternoon in their past, when they all skipped school - and their lives were altered forever. Now the haunting truth has caught up with them, along with the reality that they are probably heading for jail. But in the soul-searching angst of deciding right from wrong, the though of going down after all this time seems incomprehensible. And with the authorities hot on their trail, the old friends quickly realize that someone has to pay and their only option to remain free is to sacrifice the only thing they've held on to for years... each other!
