About
If you like tense, character-driven dramas set in isolation, this may work for you, especially if you enjoyed the restrained mood of Sibel; Not for you if you want fast pacing or clear-cut answers.
Pros: moody wilderness setting; slow-burn tension; intimate character focus | Cons: very quiet pacing; limited action; heavy emotional tone
