“During a harsh winter, a wanted frontiersman must protect the family he’s taking refuge with from a unscrupulous company that wants their land”.
I got a request from this one and someone here liked it. Once again – the next time I write something I’ll come with new knowledge of loglines/marketing/hook/bait. I’ll have that in mind when doing that first logline.
Cheers everyone.

The antagonist killed their captain and took control of the situation. The show is about that moral grey area of when killing is justified.
In this case, it is – however the antagonist slowly shows off his true colours as a psychopath and a man who genuinely wants to see blood. (The kinda guy who really shouldn’t have a gun in his hand). Meanwhile our protagonist is living alone in the snow wilderness (we learn his self-imposed isolation is almost a penance) – he’s a misanthrope because he hates humanity and what humanity (and what he himself) is capable of. His dark past is that he killed a Native American boy – which will be addressed when he and the antagonist are taken prisoner by Native Americans. Another theme is the “circle of violence” – you do violence to someone, then they’ll do violence to you or someone else, and then it never ends. It’s a circle.
The protagonist and antagonist share the same darkness – they’ve both done terrible things. But only one is haunted by it. It’s kind of a horror film in a way – to find out you have something in common with someone so evil. I think that’s terrifying (especially to find out/or know that you are the bad guy).
