Fresh off the heels of garnering Sundance's Grand Jury Prize for Best U.S. Drama for her film Frozen River, All Roads Seed Grant Recipient Heather Rae, (Trudell, 2005) who was the producer on the project, is basking in the glow of landing a distribution deal with Sony Pictures. Sony's acquisition of the film, about two single mothers--one a Mohawk Native American the other not--in upstate New York who become involved in human trafficking across the frozen St. Lawrence River that straddles the U.S.-Canadian border, is especially significant as this has been an uncharacteristically slow season of deals at Sundance this year.
