In March of 1920, just outside of Center, North Dakota, Hazel Miner and her two siblings -- Emmet and Myrdith -- are getting ready to leave school. The students have been sent home early as the weather has started to turn from a gentle snowfall to what looks like it could be a terrible snowstorm. As the siblings struggle through the wind and snow, their sled overturns into a coulee and the three take shelter to try and survive the night. As they fight to stay warm and awake, their parents and friends work furiously to try and find them before it's too late.

A faith-based story about a real life hero who demonstrates the meaning of love and sacrifice. Go to Full Review Christie Cronan Common Sense Media Jan 30
3/5
While the heart of the film is sincere, the story and historical content of Hazel's Heart is frankly lost in a blizzard. Go to Full Review Patrick McDonald HollywoodChicago.com Jan 24
3.5/5
Passionate storytelling about a different time and place, South Dakota in the 1920s, practically an alien planet now. All the ensemble cast delivers the community and faith necessary to find a trapped 16-year-old and her siblings. Go to Full Review John Stark Mac the Movie Guy Jan 19
67/100
Hazel’s Heart isn’t perfect, but it has enough warmth to melt the coldest of reactions, and found a roster of young actors and actresses I’d love to see get cast again in other projects. Go to Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com Jan 9
3.0/4.0
Convincing both as the gruff, unforgiving father and the relentlessly devoted man doing whatever it takes to save his children, Savante adds much of the electricity that engagingly moves Hazel's Heart forward. Go to Full Review Hosea Rupprecht Pauline Media Studies Jan 8
Love truly is the center of this film. The love Hazel had for her brother and sister led her to do everything she could to keep them warm and awake during the storm. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
