White Bird in a Blizzard is a 2014 art drama thriller film co-produced, written, directed and edited by Gregg Araki and starring Shailene Woodley, Eva Green, Christopher Meloni, and Angela Bassett.

Kat has recurring dreams of her mother stranded in the snow, and starts to unpack Brock's locked basement freezer but is interrupted when he walks in on her.
