Set on the beautiful West Coast of British Columbia, White Cloud, Blue Mountain is a moving and meditatively filmed half-hour drama that explores emotional isolation between fathers and sons. James, a withdrawn professional in his late thirties, tries to reconcile with his dying father but is forced to confront his inability to communicate with his family and his own young son. Graceful, evocative cinematography and compelling performances reveal a man’s poignant journey into his emotional relationships.
