Award winning documentarian Mark Stouffer's feature debut is a beautifully photographed, solidly told tale of a broken man who escapes into the woods to heal, only to be forced out of his solace by a sheriff who believes he is responsible for a missing child. Stouffer's portrayal of life in the wilderness and his obvious fondness and knowledge of it, is inspiring. Robert Logan and Kathleen Quinlan turn out fine performances as the high-powered lawyer turned hermit turned suspect, and the professor of anthropology who helps him find the truth.
