Ice Men is a 2005 Canadian film written by Michael MacLennan and directed by (former television director and cinematographer) Thom Best.[1][2] The film stars David Hewlett as Bryan, Martin Cummins as Vaughn, Greg Spottiswood as Jon, James Thomas as Steve, and Ian Tracey as Trevor.[3][1] The movie gained considerable recognition through gay and lesbian film festivals.[4]

For the first time since taking possession of the family cabin, Vaughn who has just celebrated his 30th birthday, has invited his best friends up for a winter weekend of hunting and drinking. But the arrival of unexpected visitors turns a simple getaway into two days of life changing turmoil.

Vaughn and his brother Trevor were abused by their father and have become estranged. After their father’s death, Vaughn buys the family cabin from his mother with his inheritance while brother Trevor has gambled all his away and has a large debt to pay. With the unexpected visit of his brother at the cabin, Vaughn and his best friends discover they all have deep issues.

Bryan, Vaughn’s best friend, is having relations with Vaughn’s ex girlfriend (Renee) behind his back. Jon and Steve have a fling that threatens Steve’s marriage and all he knows about himself. The story culminates in Trevor’s hidden depression coming to light shocking his brother and friends into facing their own issues, all while saving somebody they didn’t realize needed saving.
