1845 kämpfen sich drei Ehepaare mit ihren Planwagen durch die Wüsten und Berge des amerikanischen Nordwestens. Wachsende Zweifel machen sich immer stärker auf der beschwerlichen Reise bemerkbar, denn Stephen Meek, der die Gruppe nach Oregon bringen soll, erweist sich als Führer, der die Orientierung verloren hat. Pioniersfrau Emily misstraut Meek von Beginn an, rät in der ausweglosen Situation schließlich dazu, einem Fremden zu folgen, den nur sie bisher als Menschen wahrgenommen hat - einem gefangenen Indianer.

cotton dresses, dirty hands, unintelligible men, tiny drawings on a vast indifferent canvas, "this was written long before we got here", distant/following/spying camera, aspect ratio like tunnel vision/horse blinders/looking down the barrel of a gun (or looking into the barrel of a gun/looking into an empty barrel). meek is cut off. this movie has a lot of puns, each short interaction says more than most movies do with an entire chatty script and the camera does just as much of the talking. i'd call this "slow cinema", except there's always something happening if you're paying attention.youtu.be/s5ywIVBBt-Y
Hardly anything happens in this movie. Watching it is kind of like playing Oregon Trail on the slowest setting without all the excitement of trying to kill off the people traveling with you. I LOVED IT.
