Well done, original story that transcends its budget
29 September 2003
This story of a forest ranger and the man whose life he saves transcends its low budget to present a compelling tale with a lot of originality. While the acting could be better in parts, the writing is superb. Unlike many low-budget productions, I was able to see and hear what was going on (the director apologized before the screening for the volume being low, but I thought it was perfect).

As the story unfolds, we learn about the ranger and his family and the small town in which they live. As the man whose life is saved recovers from amnesia, we learn with him who he is.

The characters are compellingly drawn. The small-town environment, with its mix of support and limitation, rings true.

if you get the chance, see this film!
