Talk about in time.
In a movie that seems specially designed for the first time at the Sandans Film Festival, British actor Josh O'Connor is trying to use a southwestern accent to take over the role of Dasti, the owner of the Colorado farm, whose life (alongside his few neighbors) is collapsing Rocky Mountain's rural community in which she lived and worked in His family for generations when a destroyed forest fire destroyed everything. Above all, he lives alone after his separation from his wife, Ruby (Megan Fahi), who moved to her mother's home (Amy Madi) near their young daughter, Kali Rose (Layla Latur). After finding a temporary roof over his head in a popup -heading garden of the FBA planted in an unknown location but with no guarantee of stability, Dasti does not fully realize what happens to his dreams and how it came to this extent.
However, as the title suggests, this film does not revolve around the demolition of life, but rather about how to start again, find a new meaning, and build a society again. The film comes from the wonderful writer / director Max Walker Silverman, who did so last time Love song, A beautiful movie and I am contemplating old friends who re -communicate in a similar rural area in Colorado (where he grew up), and this film has the same kind of deliberate pace and focus on people who see their lives change but they know an alternative only in one way or another that survives.
Dusty is a quiet man and Oukonor, perhaps not the idea of the director from the shepherd of the cow, who is really able to show who this young man is, often through his miserable face expressions instead of the limited dialogue he offers in many scenes. Dasti does not have to deal only with this catastrophe that claimed the lives of his family on the farm, and the big blue barn, and all that is the one that was transmitted from grandfather to the father, but also rebuilding his relationship with the wise who exceeds it. For years, Kali Rose, who has been having difficulty adapting to her visits with her father in the small interim trailer community formed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency for these displaced. It is also clear that there is still tension in his relationship with Ruby and all this negatively affects. But its absolute goal is to survive and rebuild, just as we currently hear the residents of Los Angeles announce after losing everything. The pain in particular raises the vision of family graves now surrounded by nothing but burnt trees. It is also frustrated to visit the bank and Mr. Cassidy (Jefferson Miss), who gave him a great love for the idea that he can rebuild or get loans without anything to show him for his farm. It will take 10 years until there is anything that can be operated remotely there again, he says, taking into account the status of the Earth.
Although Dasti is slowly integrated into this instant new trailer community, which includes neighbors in the same boat, including Mila (Kali Reese), and others consisting of local actors found by movie makers who add real and true boldness to everything. While I was watching this movie, I kept thinking about it Bedouin, The best Oscar -winning movie for 2020, which revolves in a similar scattered area, but about a community He chooses This lifestyle is out of the network, not forced it as here. At the end of the credits, I noticed the name of the producer, Dan Janve, who won the Academy Award for Bedouin, He was also produced in Song of love. It is clear that it is attracted to these stories and to the American southwest. The wonderful cinematic filming of Alvonso Herrera Salisido adds and the ideal but ideal production design of Juliana Barretto to the air. A big greeting to the director Ann Golder, who merged some of the prominent local actors into the crew of the most popular and informed actors.
Oconnor continues to show different aspects of his talent here and never exaggerate it, as it appears skillfully as if he was born on this land. Fahi gets some selected scenes in addition to Reese (recently nominated for the Emmy Award The real investigator). It was nice to see Madijan doing her work in this type of warm mother's role, even with the limited time in front of the screen. The real scene thief is La Torre, which is the real partner jack of a young artist.
This movie may seem very frustrated, but it is strange that it is not. in the end Reconstruction Faith and hope gives us human race and its ability to overcome the worst that life can give us. They are inspiring things.
Producers are Jesse Hope, Paul Mizy and Jandafi.
