Johnny, a teenager living with his mother and younger sister in the Pine Ridge Reserve, decides to change the course of his life, with the unexpected death of his father, a rodeo cowboy.
Chloé Zhao's debut film, director of the acclaimed Nomadland (which I look forward to for see it), where she adresses her concern for social issues, forgotten minorities and outcasts.
The script is a bit poor in detail, because it was written as it was shot, day by day, which makes the experience interesting but at the same time vague. The film is very competent when it comes to what it gives to the audience, considering the human condition and the way it portrays the day-to-day lives of those who live with the uncertainty of tomorrow.
The cinematography resembles to documentary, with the perfect atmosphere to create empathy with the characters.
It's a tribute to traditions, affective bonds and respect for the lifestyle that deviates from the so-called normal patterns.
