Tech entremanure Mansal Denton goes on an 8 day hunting trip with hunter Mark Warnke and survial expert Callie Russell in order to clear out his head and get refocused.
This film plays very much like an inde narrative about people trying to some to terms with life and death. I know that may turn off some people who don't like inde narratives, but if you decide not to choose to see the film you are going to miss a beautiful and frequently medatative film that may resonate with you.
Much of the film has a great deal of power. There is a magic in the images that seem to connect us to nature and the world around us. I was drawn into the film and moved. The framing of the images is such that it makes some the sequences where the characters speak of their lives and troubles they have overcome kind of redundant. This isn't to sell the personal stories short, rather that the film is so well made that we don't need so many words.
This is a small gem of a film.
