MovieWestern
The Murder of Hi Good is a true-crime revisionist western set in Northern California, 1870. It details the eventual murder of California’s most notorious Indian hunter; Hiram Good. Most historians believe that his indentured servant “Indian Ned” killed him, a native boy whom he’d raised as a son. It’s suspected that Ned was influenced by the nearby Mill Creek Indians or “diggers”, who were struggling to eke out an existence on their ancestral lands.

As the filmmakers follow him around the derelict modernist dwellings a narrative emerges of Iceland's financial crisis as well as its precarious future. Collage elements are implemented in order to heighten the overall feeling of post-modernist dread and latent absurdism.
