In the gaming world, imagine stepping into the shoes of a dedicated mountaineer named Aaron (Scott-Howells), part of an tight-knit gaming clan. Tragedy strikes us on our latest expedition, leaving our community shattered and in mourning. I, Aaron, can’t shake off the guilt and believe it was my fault for that unfortunate incident. My hometown becomes too hard to bear, and I make the painful decision to leave, which enrages my sister Seren (Elwy).

Upon returning home from a year overseas, Aaron’s sister goes missing during a mountain climb. Unbeknownst to him, Aaron embarks on a quest to find her, only to discover later that a radical organization called the Justice Crusade is operating in the same mountains.

Right behind a right-wing organization, headed by ex-soldier Fairweather (Socha), chases Detective Natasha Evermore (Tremarco). She firmly believes a significant event is imminent.

The former soldier Fairweather (Socha) leads a conservative group, and Detective Natasha Evermore (Tremarco) is closely following them, as she’s certain that major developments are coming up.

In the narrative, various distinct tales intertwine within this secluded setting, giving birth to an exceptional and chilling tale. This story delves into the complexities of grief, extremism, and endurance.

As a passionate gamer, I’ve got to say that the movie “Deadpoint,” directed by Marco Kreuzpaintner, is like diving headfirst into a heart-pounding wilderness adventure with a deeply moving emotional heart. It’s a roller coaster ride through untamed landscapes, but the real hook is the powerful emotional journey it takes you on!

The filming for our latest series is now underway in Wales, where a significant portion of the plot unfolds amidst the breathtaking and relentless terrain of Snowdonia National Park.

According to Gwawr Lloyd, who is currently acting as Interim Head of Drama for Channel 4, Deadpoint is an audacious and intensely suspenseful drama that primarily focuses on the characters and their personal stories amidst high-octane action.

Matt Hartley’s first script offers an exhilarating tale, skillfully contrasted with the awe-inspiring scenery of the Eryri mountain range.
