Description

A chilling supernatural thriller set in Siberia's Kolyma Highway, where the boundaries between reality and the unknown are blurred. The Road of Bones is a 1200-mile stretch of gravel road built on top of the bones of prisoners of Stalin's gulag. This vast, snow-covered wilderness is home to an eerie landscape of barren trees and a dim, dusky sky that seems to hover overhead forever. For documentary producer Felix Teigland, this unforgiving environment holds a morbid fascination - a graveyard for hundreds of thousands of people who worked and died in the gulag. As Teig drives the highway, he encounters an abandoned town, a catatonic nine-year-old girl, and a pack of predatory wolves that seem to be driven by forces beyond their natural instincts. Pursued by these supernatural forces, Teig's companions are forced to confront inexplicable phenomena along the Road of Bones, pushing them to their limits and forcing them to confront the darkness of their own pasts.
