    Redland.

    While recently sitting through the desolate world of The Road, I couldn’t help thinking of another recent exploration of isolation and dismay in the middle of nowhere: Asiel Norton‘s Redland, a visually fascinating portrait of families struggling along in the wilderness of Great Depression-era rural America. It’s unquestionably one of the more fascinating cinematic visions of life amidst nature that I’ve seen in years. (Think Terrence Malick meets There Will Be Blood.) Here’s the trailer:

    The movie plays this Friday and Saturday at the Montreal Film Festival.
