Director: Michael Greenspan Writer: Christopher Dodd Starring: Adrien Brody, Caroline Dhavernas, Ryan Robbins, Adrian Holmes, Jacob Blair There is a wrecked car and two dead bodies: one in the backseat, one laying outside the car. The lone survivor, a nameless character (Adrien Brody), is pinned in the front passenger seat of the vehicle. Visibly bruised and bleeding, he tries as hard as he possibly can to get out of the car. It begins to rain and he finds himself cold and wet and just plain scared. His right leg is pinned somewhere underneath the glove compartment; his head is riddled with amnesia. He cries. He mutters curses. He moans. He writhes in pain. There is a pistol underneath the front seat. A female hiker (Caroline Dhavernas) appears to him. There is a mountain lion and a rifle-wielding man (Adrian Holmes). What is real? What are his dreams or hallucinations? What the fuck?...

Wreckage stars Adrien Brody and the film was recently at Cannes this year; the flick has a new one-sheet, seen left, and the story follows Brody's character after a fatal accident. Struck with amnesia this man searches for clues to his identity only to find he is the bank robber being searched for in a radio broadcast (Quiet). Enjoy this early look at feature shot near here in beautiful British Columbia.
The synopsis for Wreckage:
"A Man (Adrien Brody) awakens in a mangled car-wreck at the bottom of a steep cliff. He’s injured, his legs are trapped, and he has no memory of who he is or how he got there. His only company - a crackling radio broadcast of a violent bank robbery gone wrong and a corpse in the back seat with a wallet identifying him as one of the perpetrators. As the man ventures beyond the wreckage,...
