Long weekend

A young couple decide to spend a long weekend away in the bush together in an attempt to save their failing marriage. They head for a beach so isolated that even the locals have not heard of it. Strange things begin to happen, including the disappearance of their dog and then the girl herself. Cast includes John Hargreaves and Briony Behets.
