Directed by Debra Granik; Cast: Ben Foster, Thomasin Harcourt McKenzie; 109 min., PG
From the Academy Award nominated director of Winter’s Bone. Will and his teenage daughter, Tom, have lived off the grid for years in the forests of Portland, Oregon. When their idyllic life is shattered, both are put into social services. After clashing with their new surroundings, Will and Tom set off on a harrowing journey back to their wild homeland. “Debra Granik’s drama about a damaged war vet (Ben Foster) living off the grid with his teen daughter, brilliantly played by breakout star Thomasin Harcourt McKenzie, is hypnotic, haunting and one of the year’s best.” —Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
