Synopsis

The Logging Road is a very grey film inspired by tensions and anxieties that exist in Northern BC around Highway 16. It follows a young highway officer who finds a suspicious truck idling down an empty logging road. The story plays out with a deep sense of dread and paranoia built up by the history of the highway, its ever-present feeling of dangerous isolation and an officer’s personal struggle with stress. The film's only aim is to ask questions about how these situations could be handled.
