Redemption Trail is a 2013 American drama film written and directed by Britta Sjogren and starring Lily Rabe, LisaGay Hamilton, Jake Weber and Hamish Linklater.
Two strong, yet deeply troubled women - struggling with political and personal trauma - try to escape pasts that haunts them. Tess, the daughter of a murdered Black Panther, lives off the grid on a Sonoma vineyard, detached from any sort of human connection. Her life of solitude is shattered when she gives reluctant shelter to a desperate young woman, Anna. An unlikely companionship forms, where other close relationships have failed. But the very difference between the two women opens them up to a new vision of themselves, as not only survivors, but as heroes. Bravely reclaiming independence, and their personal life, they charge forward, towards an unknown, transformative future.
The film's production took place over the summer of 2011 in the Stubbs Vineyard, Marin County, Petaluma and Oakland, California.[2]
The film had its world premiere at the Mill Valley Film Festival in October 2013, winning the audience award.[2] [3]
