It’s intense and disturbing, and should come with a trigger warning for survivors of sexual violence. The story focuses on issues that are very important without being agitprop.

The film-making, writing, and acting are very well done. The characters are convincing and the world it brings the viewer into is believable. And it’s dramatically tight and satisfying as a narrative. Jeremy Renner’s character is a deeply good man, which is ultimately what makes this a compelling story.

Recommended, with the trigger caveat noted above.

Based on a true story, totally needs a trigger warning.

Life on the rez isn't what most people imagine.
