## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

Downtown L.A., dead of winter. A snowplow scrapes asphalt outside a boarded-up police station.

A highway cop, two convicts on parole, and the last clerk inside. Night arrives with headlights and shouted threats.

Carpenter’s siege movie moves like a camera on wheels.

**Mood tags**: raw, slow-burn
