‘Wind River’

wind_river_ver2_xlgSet in the isolated beauty of a Wyoming winter and the Wind River Reserve, game tracker Jeremy Renner discovers the body of Natalie, a teenage Native American and best friend of his deceased daughter. An ill-prepared FBI agent, Elizabeth Olsen arrives from Las Vegas and appeals to him for help.

The directorial debut of scriptwriter Taylor Sheridan is a thrilling ride in the search for her killers. Masculinity in its rawest form comes under the microscope as strutting machismo is only too evident in a world where resident in Native American Reserves offers limited choice and corporate America rules the roost.
