Wind River

At the heart of a Native American reservation, a young girl’s body is discovered in the snow. All signs indicate that she escaped her assaulters. When a local hunter familiar with the terrain and the victim joins the investigating FBI agent, deep emotions surface and explode. Taylor Sheridan, best known as screenwriter for Sicario and Hell or High Water, wrote and directed this film for which he was awarded Best Director at the 2017 Cannes Un Certain Regard competition. Wind River showcases outstanding performances by Elizabeth Olsen and Jeremy Renner in the lead roles. A plot that digs deep into open wounds and unfolds as a Western in which cowboys and Indians play reverse roles.
