Somewhere deep within the snowy mountains of the American West, a lone figure Gideon (Brosnan) sits in front of a fire, lost in thought. Abruptly, he is pulled out of his reverie by the echo of a Henry rifle and a bullet puffing into the snow inches from his head.
With no time to react another shot rings out. It connects with Gideon’s shoulder and whips him to the ground. Instantly Gideon calculates his one chance of survival. To leave everything he owns and run for the cover of the nearby fir trees – his blood leaving a crimson trail in the snow. So begins the thrilling first act of Seraphim Falls, and the final stage of Colonel Morsman Carver’s (Neeson) terrible revenge to hunt down and kill Gideon, no matter what it takes. Launched by a gunshot and propelled by rage, the relentless pursuit will take them both far from the comforts and codes of civilization and into the unforgiving wilderness. The emotional conclusion to this odyssey comes after a bloody climax in which both men are forced to confront their past and travel deep within the recesses of their souls.Seraphim Falls is a visceral study of revenge and a bloody account of the aftermath of war.
