A young girl, Amy Tolliver (Mae Whitman), is visiting her grandmother's cabin in a forested mountain area of Maine.
Amy had not long before developed a degenerative eye disease that has made her completely blind with no light perception, and she is trying to cope with her recent disability.
A heavy storm develops and two escaped convicts, Roy (Jason Gray-Stanford) and Jared (Teach Grant) come to the isolated cabin.
One of the other convicts, Jared arrives just after Amy tricks Roy into going into the log store and locks him in, and takes her back into the house, pretending to be a police officer.
Meanwhile, Amy's boyfriend is making his way to the cabin, having had to leave his car because of a fallen tree, and the police aren't far behind.
David shuts the electricity off and Roy misses the shot, saving Amy's life.
