The unexpected passing of her estranged mother forces Alex to confront a past she had sworn to leave behind. Drawn back to her hometown, she is swiftly plunged into a dark world where a criminal syndicate is dangerously engaged in organ trafficking, and her mother’s body is on the verge of becoming their next target.

In an intense 24-hour battle, Alex strives to reclaim her mother’s remains while also fighting to save her sister’s life, all the while grappling with a lifetime of self-doubt. In America, the sale or purchase of organs and tissue is illegal; nonetheless, the harsh realities of supply and demand force the law into the shadows.

Newcomer Elizabeth Cotter brings an impressive background in stunt work and acting to the role of Alex, executing nearly all of her stunts herself. She is well-supported by a mix of experienced actors and emerging talents, creating a film that exceeds expectations despite its limited budget. A dedicated cast and crew braved the unforgiving chill of the Pacific Northwest Winter to narrate a story that is both brutally honest and deeply optimistic.

BURN IT ALL boldly addresses the myriad ways in which men violate the mental and physical sanctity of women, presenting a poignant critique that avoids exploitation. This gripping narrative weaves a thrilling tale of a woman who adamantly defies the crushing weights of patriarchy. As the story reaches its climactic climax, it delves into themes of bodily autonomy, offering more than mere entertainment; it sparks vital conversations regarding the issues at hand.
