Official Synopsis for What Breaks the Ice
Two girls from different worlds form a deep and unlikely friendship in the sweltering summer heat of 1998. Their fun and carefree days quickly turn cold as they find themselves at the center of a mysterious murder.
“What Breaks the Ice is a movie that, above all, celebrates female friendship,” says director Rebecca Eskreis. “In that spirit, I am eternally grateful to our cast and crew — my friends and colleagues — and especially, the two powerful women who embody the on-screen friendship at the core of the film.”
This coming-of-age ’90s era film will be available on October 1 in select theaters, on Premium VOD & Digital. I think it looks fantastic and I can’t wait to check it out. What about you?
