A Truely sublime piece of film making.I love how those stories intertwined and They were very good.Great acting and directing A very very good movie 🎉👍
Where did an independent film find such incredible actors? Everybody in this film should be famous. WOW! This is one of the best films I have watched since I first saw Owning Mahoney. Hats off to the writers, directors and these fabulous actors. I’m literally blown away by this film.
What a unique and entertaining move this is! Quality script, directing and acting and the perfect locale. It is that special type of movie where you just can't leave the room for anything because you want to see where the stories go. WIth so much commercial movie junk being throw out to the public these days finding this gem of a movie was a gift.
WOW! 😶 This film is BEYOND... BIG UP to the Community of West VA, you all know how to stick together! 🙏for your Community Development that respects "history" YET ENVISIONS A FUTURE OF OMNIPOTENCE FOR YOUR CHILDREN!!!! AMEN. SELAH.
Me too, for some reason today I decided to watch TH-cam films because it rained all day long and it was cold and I was very lucky to find the movies I enjoyed so much.
I really liked this movie.. I'm an older guy and appreciate these kind of films.. Actual story telling that's intriguing and had me interested all the way through..
Really good!! Don't listen to the haters !! Don't miss this movie, great way they tied the two stories together! Anyone that can give this award winning movie a thumbs down, probably it was a little to deep. Really cleverly written! A+A+A+A
The whole story just ended but it was a good film. It drew me in and kept me at the edge of my seat . Excellent acting. The background music was good not too much, not too loud but complimentary.
3 great stories! Small town American life, dying coal mining town, endings reminiscent of, "The Lady or the Tiger"! Thanks for posting...from a Pennsylvania coal miner's grand daughter. Excellent job everyone, so real!
I being from West Virginia can understand and relate to everything in this movie. I thought it was done in very good taste and the actors were great. But I feel that the ending left me with wanting more of the story. Thanks for the film.
I agree with you for the movie ending! I'm Italian...know the language pretty good and also the use of the subtitles is a help for me not american but obviously I have some difficult to relate with the " pathos " of the story. Great movie by the way...
Wow....and so we come full circle, with an outcome so uncertain....but I found in it a note of eternal hope: That honesty and integrity will overcome. It is what is expected of us all. Moving and beautifully written; acting spot on!
Fantastic how the 3 stories were woven together and the role of the kid interviewing the mayor was effective....showing how you can only find out so much, and maybe nothing, from a badly designed survey ......her youth and cluelessness about how to read the older man and his responses....he was not saying a lot more than what he told her, yet it is clear he is a man of esteem that is not reflected in what was recorded in the survey. And it's left open as the girl gets a little less clueless about him....that she might figure some things out before she puts that report together for her school project.
This was stellar. Exceptional cast, low budget and yet very high production values and cinematography. It is left up to the viewer to fill in the blanks. Glad I saw it.
Movie started out with great promise, but then it petered out ... The film was backed by the West Virginia Film Board so in the end it was merely a public relations exercise promoting West Virginia small town values and sprinkled with moral lessons throughout. I found the scenery fascinating. All that snow! I hail from an arid part of Africa where sunstroke and skin cancer are as big a danger as exposure and frostbite in West Virginia.
This is one of the most intelligent films ever made. Great story, cast, director. (spoiler alert) 3 seemingly disconnected stories coming together at the end to a gut-wrenching conclusion that left me wondering, "How did they (the filmmaker and writer) do it? I rate this at the same level as Mystic River by Clint Eastwood; the cast are similarly outstanding. (Note: This requires a lot of attention to details to really appreciate it). WOW!
The majority of comments are correct. This is an outstanding movie by any standard. Better than most Hollywood movies of this type. The underlying decency of the stories and the characters would keep Hollywood from doing something like this, anyway.
Excellent film, fantastic cast & beautiful location! Omg...I would love to live in that small town in West Virginia! The people are awesome & so genuine! Loved this film & thanks for the upload!
Wow! Beautifully done! Wonderful acting! Great independent film! This Nation needs to produce more films like this one! There are so many short, interconnecting stories out there!!! Thanks!
I read all the negative reviews in the comment section but I thought this was very entertaining and I very much enjoyed the flick, thanks for the bad reviews, made me curious enough to watch and find out for myself,
Loved this movie. Being from that part of WV I know the town of Davis. The water falls they spoke of is Blackwater Falls, one of the most beautiful small waterfalls in America...look it up on TH-cam. The people portrayed are just as they really are, kind, caring, salt of the earth, real and beautiful.
This is ..... a creative and very unique movie ...The ending.... I would like to see finished out. I hope the creative team behind this movie . Unite to finish out the ending. --- Part 2....
Pretty good movie! I truly did appreciate the three stories examining the meaning of life. I did enjoy too the actings, the locations and the cinematography!
Everyone's opinions vary on this one-so I suggest watching it-you got a 50/50 chance. I thought this was an excellent movie as it was an award winning film. It is 3 movies in one if you don't understand (or get it) read the synopsis about the movie-that is the glory of this channel, they are kind enough to tell you a bit about what you're getting into. ***** stars out of 5 from me. Really appreciate the uploads I have been fortunate enough to find from subscribing to your channel. Excellent!! 👍😇
This was a beautifully done movie. It's well worth a watch. It may not appeal to those that are looking for a fast-paced, violence and sex filled adventure film, but if you appreciate a well written, beautifully acted, sensitive and meaningful film with characters that have some depth - this is a film that gets you to think a little, and ou'll probably really enjoy this gem.
Ppl are changing they have no respect for their elders .And the young girls why are they so mean I'm 39 and love my friends from grade school .They hurt and kill them .It's sad 😥 😥.And no I have no kids of my own .🙏✌💜
Finally, some good helpful reviews, I was starting to think a bunch of drunks or ADHD patients were on here!!👋😬, not that I’m making fun, I have it myself
Thanks for uploading this, I enjoyed watching it. There's so much drek out there these days it's good to be able to catch a quality movie once in a while.
If only there were more films of this standard. Masterfully done in every aspect of the art. Bravo.
The depiction of humanity is in every way.
You read my mind.
A Truely sublime piece of film making.I love how those stories intertwined and They were very good.Great acting and directing
A very very good movie 🎉👍
Gripping. Amazing how a day deer hunting can change lives. Well acted. Truly deserved the awards

The Mayor visiting his friend and his reaction was one of the best acting scenes I've ever seen.

Beautifully human... Subtle ending... Power of the glances, strengh of the silences... Great filming.

A GREAT MOVIE!!!!! WOW.... Im a Deer hunter too, and this is a very realistic things that can happen in a state forest....

That's what I call a very fine movie. Well structured story, good acting, and a secure, discrete, competent direction.
Quite amazing how these three stories were folded, infact, molded together! HIGHLY recommeded!
Excellent! Great location, actors and stories. Loved how each tied together in the last. Thank you

Can't blame the coal mines for the poisonous drinking water, anymore.
Finally we come full circle.. This was a film that takes it's time but it's worth the wait . Masterly film making, thank you folks for this gem.
Joe is the Man! Reminds me of my Grandpa. Good, wholesome,simple man. Way it should be!!
Thank you for sharing " Home sweet Home" BY GOD WVA. I miss here so much and this movie helps keep my memories alive. it seemed so long ago.
For a low budget movie it was very good. Good acting and story directing. One of the the best low budget movies that I've ever seen.
You have a wine list?
Yes.... Red or white?
Good old Virginia😉😂
Good movie....well worth watching!
Excellent film, fantastic cast & beautiful location! Omg...I would love to live in that small town in West Virginia! The people are awesome & so genuine! Loved this film & thanks for the upload!
Thank you for sharing this movie with us. ❤❤❤
The acting was very good on each segment. Very good acting.
Oh No!!!! I was sitting there in the edge of my seat waiting for him to tell his dad what happened... and it finished!!!
I liked the movie. You don’t need more to end it because you already know what he will tell his dad. That is why it IS a good movie.
What we don't know, could fill a book!
Wow! Beautifully done! Wonderful acting! Great independent film!
This Nation needs to produce more films like this one! There are so many short, interconnecting stories out there!!!
Thanks!
🎬❤
Liked it a lot!
Beautiful story telling with dots connecting at the very end...
Magnifique !
I read all the negative reviews in the comment section but I thought this was very entertaining and I very much enjoyed the flick, thanks for the bad reviews, made me curious enough to watch and find out for myself,
Thoroughly enjoyed this movie. A real winner!
YES!!!! Excellent film!
🎬❤️
Awesome flick here~~off the beaten path~~about as REAL as a movie can get, IMHO~~thx for this high quality upload
Somebody is a very talented film maker. I Tip My Hat to them. This is quality work.

I wanted it to keep going! Really good acting
Wow, what a Gem. Enjoyed it so much.
Plain and simple. I like plain and simple. Don't waste a couple hours gettin' all complicated. Much obliged.
Brilliant Movie, I was surprised how it all came together.
Very much enjoyed this. Superb acting and storylines
Thank you!

Raymond Swadley beautiful movie, knew some kind folks from there
I live 15 min. Away from Davis...I wouldn't live anywhere else in the world
Wow. Another great film. Wow.
A very good way to spend some time.
Not really a movie but it felt like joining these people in their lives & I'd like to spend more time with them.
Really good film. Takes awhile to get moving, then it's a winding tale.
Thank you! Great movie!
Been a film buff for over 60 years, nicely done!
How I wish that I was there when my father passed away!!!!😁😁🙏🏼🕊🙏🏼💯💛💗💗💗😥😢....
girl learned some golden nuggets of wisdom from that old man
Great movie...superb no name actors..great production,scenery etc...👍
Great movie ! I wish there was some ‘conclusion’ to the story though !
OMG, I wanna know what happens next! Where's part 2? Excellent movie.
This movie reminded me of a another movie called “ Crash “ three stories roll into one But this movie is a gem 💎 its need more of this kind of movie
Qúc
Sometimes the worst things happen in families where parents are very good and honest
This is ..... a creative and very unique movie ...The ending.... I would like to see finished out. I hope the creative team behind this movie . Unite to finish out the ending. --- Part 2....
Rely well paced, asome real and suspenfull, tour de forse, loved it!
Wonderful!!!
I'm originally from West Virginia, so I'll watch the movie and see how close it is.
Fantastically created.
Silent. Subdued. Told through actions rather than purely words. Cinematography just fit.
For some reason I find it spooky during a bad snowstorm
Any storm.
Pretty good movie! I truly did appreciate the three stories examining the meaning of life. I did enjoy too the actings, the locations and the cinematography!
even better 2nd time through. Deliverance-like ending...."well, we'll see what the river brings up...".
very cool how they tied those three segments together
26 min in, this is a good movie, Thank you for uploading this 1!
Great movie! Thanks for the upload.

The first one, with the hunters, was pretty good 👍. I watched it for the first time in the 90s' . I liked it then I like it now.
Thanks for uploading this, I enjoyed watching it. There's so much drek out there these days it's good to be able to catch a quality movie once in a while.
This film does not come to a conclusion.
Damn excellent acting🎉
Beautiful scenery wow!
