"Jack Goldman and Beth Marshall impulsively decide to adopt an orphaned boy they see on a video. Leaving the doubts of friends and family behind, their journey to find the child takes them to a wintry Russian village where they find themselves in a lonely hotel room…waiting. Although warned of unexpected surprises, they are unprepared for what awaits, and at odds with the people they must trust. As events spiral beyond their control, Beth and Jack discover the risk they have taken could cost them the boy and each other."
