Fell

2014 · 100 min · ★ 9.2

A stunning debut by Australian director Kasimir Burgess, Fell is an entrancing and enigmatic drama - a dreamlike, visually resplendent tale of nature, revenge and redemption. While on a camping trip, Thomas' only daughter, Lara, is killed by a logging truck in a hit-and-run accident for which the driver, Luke, serves a prison sentence. Stricken with grief, Thomas sheds his urban life and his identity, and moves to the remote town where Lara was killed. There he takes on a new name, Chris, and finds work as a logger.

Directed by Kasimir Burgess · Written by Natasha Pincus
