Join Dendy Cinemas Portside for a Club Preview of Walking Out on Wednesday, March 28 6:30 PM.

“Sometimes the greatest journey is the distance between two people.”

Based on the “American Short Story Masterpiece” by David Quammen, Walking Out tracks fourteen-year-old David’s (Josh Wiggins) annual visit to rural Montana to see his brooding, off-the-grid father, Cal (Matt Bomer). Separated from the comforts of home, David is reluctant and resentful as Cal plans the boy’s first big game hunt. As the pair ascends into the wilderness, Cal tries to connect with David by recounting the story of his own first kill, on his last hunting trip with his now long-dead father (Bill Pullman). After their trip is disrupted by a chance encounter with a grizzly bear, a wounded Cal realises they must both rely on David’s strength and resilience to survive.

“Few movies have evinced such a specifically American understanding of the role that love plays (or doesn’t) in becoming a man, or so openly confronted the notion that strength can only be passed down through suffering.” – IndieWire

“Beautiful to watch.” – New York Times

“The mountain backdrops are stunning, but the movie’s real draw is its understanding of how children pick up more from their parents than their sceptical, self-pitying moms and dads ever imagine.” – AV Club
