Having settled in California, John has long abandoned the rural life of his childhood years. His father, Willis, a headstrong man of old ways, now in the early stages of dementia, runs the reclusive family farm all by himself. As Willis temporarily moves to John’s place, father-son tensions quickly rise and unhealed wounds of mutual resentment resurface. Multitalented Viggo Mortensen’s directorial debut is a low-key drama of forgiveness and endurance that shines a light into the darkness.
