After a one night stand, a young woman (Maya) awakes to find she is alone in a luxurious house. There is no sign of her boyfriend from the night before, but she starts enjoying the luxury of her surroundings and has no desire to go back to the dump she shared with her drug-addicted mother. So she settles right in. After a few days, the missing boyfriend's sister shows up and it becomes apparent that Maya will do whatever it takes to claim this home as her own. Then things get rather interesting.

The Oxbow Cure is a winter tale of Lena, a middle-aged woman who has recently been diagnosed with a life-altering disease. In an attempt to come to terms with her transforming body, she leaves her home in the city for a new life in remote northern Ontario. While exploring the natural world outside her cottage, she begins to create an interior routine. A frozen lake, mere steps from her front door, is a source of both fear and fascination.
