Logline

Suspenseful cinema at its best, starring a ferocious Dale Dickey.

Anne smokes like a chimney, has a penchant for alcohol, and has just been kicked out of her knitting group for bad behavior. But she has some strengths as well, and she needs them when her property is seized and she’s sent to a retirement home. With icy determination, the senior citizen plans her revenge on the man who’s expropriated her, and she won’t shy away from violence.
