Synospis : A cause des réseaux sociaux, Tori a développé de l’anxiété. Lorsqu’elle refuse d’aller à l’école, sa mère inquiète l’envoie chez son grand-père Benoit dans une cabane en pleine nature pour apprendre les techniques de survie.
Synopsis: Suffering from debilitating anxiety and refusing to go to school, 16 year old Tori is driven to stay with her grandfather in a remote frozen wilderness but unexpectedly finds herself caught up in a deadly game of cat and mouse.
Note: « “Who can say which moments will shape you into who you will become?,” Tori’s grandfather tells her at one point in the trailer as she learns hunting and survival skills along a frozen lake near the U.S. border. Soon, a crisis forces Tori into a deadly cat and mouse game where her despair gives way to defiance as guns are pointed and hands are bloodied.
Hair of the Bear also sees Baker, also known for roles in Nickelodeon’s horror anthology Are You Afraid of the Dark? and Descendants 4, step into a darker role in the Canadian indie drama, which she executive produces, while Juliette Hagopian produces.” (Hollywoodreporter)
