Deep in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, a couple lives in isolation with their six young children, the mother returning to modern society for medical treatment due to illness, while the father stays and teaches the children Survival skills, and what he believes to be the truth. At night, they listened to their father by the campfire and discussed the outside world. One day when the news of the mother's death came, the children decided to leave their "home" and go to the city for a "mortal funeral", they wanted to go to the outside world to take their mother back and cremated according to her own wishes, not according to worldly arrangements. But they never imagined that this time departure had subverted their worldview, and they began to doubt everything their father had given them.
The director uses soft brushstrokes to overdo the conflicts that may occur. There are no violent conflicts and irreversible consequences, even if there is an essential difference between the choices of the children and the father, the father wants to prevent the younger son from returning to the mainstream society, preventing the son from returning to the mainstream Going to college, I didn’t want my children to make choices that went against them, and finally decided to return the choice to the children. The children finally hid in their father’s car and reached a reconciliation again.
We cannot refuse what this society has to offer, but we can live the life we want.
