Perhaps the best cinematic adventure this decade
It's been years since I've been this sad to see a film end. Wish I were more eloquent, so that I could do it justice.

Two twenty-something brothers are struggling with the loss of the only parent they've really known and to find their way - especially one. They head north to their dad's fishing cabin. It's a great visual, emotional and intellectual adventure. The three main characters, our two leading actors and Quebec's north, are fantastic in their roles advancing that adventure. And the crew put it on film beautifully.

One of the things that struck me is how well the film shows the confinement of emotion generally expected of men. The cast and crew deal with this and so much more, brilliantly. I was deeply moved.

I'd highly recommend. I may be the first '10' vote, but I won't be the last.
