Well observed coming of age tale

A young girl on the brink of womanhood goes on her first deer hunt, a family rite of passage. During the course of a few days, she and her close family deal with tragedy in their own way, and an acceptance of the responsibilities of entering adulthood gently align on this young woman's shoulders.

A gentle, contemplative film, well worth your time.
