Oscar winner Chloe Zhao directs this adaptation of a book by the same name that narrates elements of real lives people lead. A story about itinerant people in the modern day. People that cannot be held down in one place.
They look for odd jobs to support their lifestyle. Some come from well to do families and some because they are down on their luck. But it is a tribe. Their common purpose is to thrive discovering a new experience and not get stuck to the material.
The film plays like a documentary and the scenery is vast. Largely shot in the western United States it is a tad long in runtime but well worth it.
I am considering leaving corporate America behind for a while myself and hitting the road. Not quite go nomadic but not have a plan for some time.
I will see how it goes. Where it leads. I do not expect anything.
