A father’s solo deer hunt becomes a brutal reckoning with masculinity, fear and the violence he never meant to face.
Determined to prove himself, a father escapes to the wilderness for a solitary deer hunt he is utterly unprepared to undertake. What begins as a fragile performance of toughness soon fractures under the weight of reality. As the forest closes in, bravado gives way to panic, and a misguided rite of passage spirals into a moral crisis. Stripped of illusion, he must confront the man he is and the one he has been pretending to be.
Rialto Recommends:
A stark, unsettling portrait of masculinity under pressure. Tense and unflinching, this is a wilderness drama that cuts far deeper than survival.
