I thought this was a decent movie. I would give it 3 stars.

John M.

A very compelling story of survival in a relatively desolate environment. Brilliantly acted; the main actor proves himself both subtle and formidable.

This DVD was damaged. It kept stopping and going at the beginning. I didn't watch it long enough to find out if this problem continued. It appeared to be a low budget foreign film which was subtitled. Not very interesting based on the little that I watched.
