Ice

Ice

An enigmatic, existential enforcer for a small-time local crime boss does not suffer fools gladly. Unfulfilled and compromised by his life and the pointlessness that surround him, he detaches -- and methodically explores life's transitory nature in a surprising way. ICE is not a brooding film -- with flashes of humor and quirkiness -- it is a film about hope.
