The TVI Take

Kelly Reichardt's 2013 Pacific-Northwest eco-terrorism film anchored by Jesse Eisenberg, Dakota Fanning, and Peter Sarsgaard as three environmental activists planning to blow up a hydroelectric dam. The structural commitment to letting moral-architecture-after-the-act be the actual subject (the film's second half is the more-disciplined and more-uncomfortable half) is what separates the work from the genre's standard practice.
