Synopsis
UNDER is a love story about city girl Sydney, a relapsed drug addict, who is convinced to journey to a country cabin by her fiancé Tom, in order to clean up. However, their plans of rehabilitation are suddenly made moot when an avalanche buries them alive. Trapped in a small pocket of air, the two soon realize that any attempt to free Sydney will bury and kill Tom. Sydney, who has slowly been killing herself with drugs, has to decide if she is finally willing to live, and at the expense of her beloved.
