An unfriendly and unpleasant guy lives in the wilderness hunting wolves. Sometimes he walks down to a valley in the mountains to sell furs and have extremely short and uninteresting conversations with other unfriendly and uninteresting people in a village. His lifestyle is in conflict with the relationship with his wife. That's all. The argument is a spoiler on itself.
Intentionally, the script does not provide any information or context about the characters. Even when the main character sells fur, the currency used is just "coins". Given the weapons used by the hunter, maybe is around 1920-1930. It does not matter, it just wanted to present an unespecified past without modern communications technology and modern regulation, and more available wild Nature.
The lack of real adventure, context or interesting characters wrecks the intention of the authors to show the dehumanization of the main character in the wild Nature. The result is a really boring movie, but with a very beautiful photography (that's why I gave it 4 out of 10)
