Sometimes there's a fine line between harvesting the land and ruining it. That's what Tommy discovers when he steps in to help run his late father's logging company - and butts heads with a most unlikely enemy, his brother. Tommy wants to slow their production rate in order to avoid stripping the mountain of all its trees; his brother wants to make a quick buck, the quicker the better. After an explosive confrontation between the brothers, Tommy must make the decision of his life by choosing between his family and his environment.
Reviews
It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
