Trailer
Why watch this film?
A provocative movie about a man who wants to raise his children the best way possible - and in doing so, isolates them from the evils of the world. Should we live a ‘perfect’ life, our own way, or should we adjust to society’s conventions? Is it right for others to judge how we live, ‘for our own good’? All this clash of ideas is packaged with great direction from Matt Ross and also features an impeccable performance from Viggo Mortensen, which earned him Oscar and Golden Globe nominations.
