The 2011 Cambridge Film Festival is now over, come back soon for details of next year's festival

Hailed as one of the first Oscar contenders of the year, and emerging from Sundance with the Grand Jury Prize, WINTER'S BONE is set in the rural American Ozark country, and tells the tale of Ree Dolly, who learns that her father left the family house as collateral against his bail before disappearing. If she can?t find him, she and her siblings and her mentally ill mother will be homeless. Jennifer Lawrence shines as Ree, trying desperately to break through the silence that greets her at every turn, as she digs deeper into the local drugs trade to save her family. Sure to be one of the most talked about films this year, unsettling and powerful, WINTER'S BONE is an instant classic.
