A gentle March snowfall suddenly transforms into a furious blizzard. The Miner children, Hazel (Madelyn Dundon), Emmet, and Myrdith; struggle to make it home from school as they become lost in the blinding wind and snow. As their parents (Stelio Savante and Laurie Fortier) and friends hunt desperately for the lost children, Hazel must keep her younger siblings alive in the face of impossible odds.
Hazel is being filmed in North Dakota, and is produced by Daniel Bielinski, Dave Diebel, Carson Nordgaard, and J Brockton Holbert.
