In No Exit, Havana Rose Liu (Mayday) makes her feature film leading role debut as Darby, a young woman en route to a family emergency who is stranded by a blizzard and forced to find shelter at a highway rest area with a group of strangers.
When she stumbles across an abducted girl in a van in the parking lot, it sets her on a terrifying life-or-death struggle to discover who among them is the kidnapper.
Directed by Damien Power (Killing Ground) from a screenplay by Andrew Barrer & Gabriel Ferrari (Ant-Man and The Wasp), the film is based on Taylor Adams‘ 2017 novel (check price at Amazon). The producer is Scott Frank (The Queen’s Gambit).
The movie stars Havana Rose Liu, Danny Ramirez (The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Top Gun: Maverick), David Rysdahl (Nine Days), Dale Dickey (Winter’s Bone), Mila Harris (Young Dylan), and Dennis Haysbert (Breakthrough).
Adams’ novel is officially described as follows: “On her way to Utah to see her dying mother, college student Darby Thorne gets caught in a fierce blizzard in the mountains of Colorado.
“With the roads impassable, she’s forced to wait out the storm at a remote highway rest stop. Inside are some vending machines, a coffee maker, and four complete strangers.
“Desperate to find a signal to call home, Darby goes back out into the storm… and makes a horrifying discovery. In the back of the van parked next to her car, a little girl is locked in an animal crate.
“Who is the child? Why has she been taken? And how can Darby save her?
“There is no cell phone reception, no telephone, and no way out. One of her fellow travelers is a kidnapper. But which one?
“Trapped in an increasingly dangerous situation, with a child’s life and her own on the line, Darby must find a way to break the girl out of the van and escape. But who can she trust?
“With exquisitely controlled pacing, Taylor Adams diabolically ratchets up the tension with every page.
“Full of terrifying twists and hairpin turns, No Exit will have you on the edge of your seat and leave you breathless.”
