The small working-class town of Angels Crest is a tight-knit community resting quietly in one of the vast and stunningly beautiful valleys of the Rocky Mountains. Ethan, one of the town's residents, is a young father but not much more than a kid himself. He has no choice but to look after his three-year-old son Nate, since mom Cindy is an alcoholic. But one snowy day, Ethan's good intentions are thwarted by a moment of thoughtlessness, resulting in tragedy. A local prosecutor haunted by his past goes after Ethan, and the ensuing confusion and casting of blame begins to tear the town apart.
Angels Crest is a 2011 American-Canadian independent drama film directed by Gaby Dellal and starring Thomas Dekker, Elizabeth McGovern, Jeremy Piven and Mira Sorvino. The film was adapted from the novel of the same name by Leslie Schwartz. It was marketed in the UK as Abandoned.
