Great film

The acting, score and cinematography is stellar. Story wise it's also really good. It is one of those rare films where I wanted the story to continue. It perfectly balanced the intersectionality of identity, culture, heritage and family. This is cinema done well and I look forward to seeing the main leads in upcoming projects.

For select audiences

A 2-spirited teen drags his younger brother along, as he escapes their abusive father and searches for their mother. Along the way, he meets people who help him become acquainted with his Mi'kmaw heritage, and to express his sexuality.

This is a good 1st feature by the writer-director. However, the film is a bit too long, the leads are a bit too slender, and the coincidences seem a bit stretched. See it if you are interested in the themes, otherwise skip it.

I was touched by this film

It was a very good effort. In a world full of cliche films this one stands out for its nuances and emotion. It deals with difficult subjects in a non-superficial way. It was a tad long but that doesnt seem to detract from the film significantly. Highly recommended for people who are tired of the same old.

Underrated film

Wildhood is an incredibly touching piece of art. I appreciated how it carried its premise through to the end without resorting to cliches. The indigenous elements of the film also make it stand out in unique ways-primarily with the interesting characters they meet along the way and the setting. Finally, the chemistry between the two main characters is fantastic. I fully recommend this film.

Well done

No special effects here. Just a beautiful story about 2 brothers who escape an abusive home to look for their mother. On the journey, they find a friend. Like the soundtrack too!

Anecdotes
The film was inspired by Bretten Hannam's own life, heritage, and orientation. They were partially inspired to make the film based on their frustration with Indigenous representation in mainstream film and television.
