Documentary Film: A New Kind of Wilderness | LandxSea Monthly

LandxSea's monthly film series returns to Montrose Playhouse this May with an exclusive preview of A NEW KIND OF WILDERNESS - winner of Sundance's Grand Jury Prize for World Cinema - Documentary 2024. 🎬

On a small farmstead in the lush Norwegian forest, the Paynes live a purposefully isolated life; aiming to be wild and free, and living sustainably in harmony with nature. Maria and Nik, along with their four children Ulv, Falk, Freja, and Ronja are self-sufficient and resourceful. They practice home-schooling and strive for a closely-knit family dynamic that beats in rhythm with the natural world around them.

When an unforeseen tragedy strikes, the Payne’s idyllic world is upended, forcing them to confront a new and uncertain life in modern society.

The Guardian calls A NEW KIND OF WILDERNESS "Beautiful, heart-wrenching and ultimately hopeful."

Don't miss this rare chance to experience this intimate, thoughtful film before its official release.
