- QUICK TAKE:
- Drama/Action: Having been left for dead after a hunting accident, a young Paleolithic era man sets out across hostile environs to try to make it home, with his only companion being a wild wolf he's nursed back to health.
- PLOT:
- It's 20,000 years ago somewhere in Europe and a small tribe of Paleolithic era men have embarked on their annual and arduous trek to ancient hunting grounds to kill bison. The tribe's leader, Tau (JÓHANNES HAUKUR JÓHANNESSON), has great hopes that his son, Keda (KODI SMIT-MCPHEE) will one day assume his position, but the young man is inexperienced and has an aversion to killing animals.
When part of the hunt goes terribly wrong, Keda ends up unconscious on a narrow ledge too far down from the top and too high up from the bottom for the others to check on or rescue him. With them believing Keda to be dead, they depart for the long trip back home.
Keda then regains consciousness, manages to get off that ledge, and learns he's all alone. When he's attacked by a pack of wolves, he manages to wound one before escaping to the safety of a tree. But after the rest of the pack has left, he can't bring himself to kill the wolf and instead decides to nurse it back to health.
Upon completion of that, and with an unlikely bond having developed between the two, Keda sets out in an attempt to walk home, accompanied by the wolf he's now named Alpha.
- WILL KIDS WANT TO SEE IT?
- If they're interested in prehistoric peoples or are drawn to the story of a young man and his "pet" wolf they might show some interest.
- WHY THE MPAA RATED IT: PG-13
- For some intense peril.
