unpaved — documentary
In the mist-shrouded mountains of Oregon, a tiny community lives quietly in the shadow of Bigfoot, seeking comfort in nature and one another while struggling with life's challenges.
A film that in its gentle, unhurried way balances between mundane life and existential themes.
“Our Documentary Screening Committee commended the film for its incisive and immersive exploration inside the lives of a small community in Oregon, and how their idiosyncrasies as isolated individuals and self-ascribed ‘outcasts’ shed light on a lot of the human fabric or patchwork of the United States.”
