The Road to Patagonia

2024 1h 30m Documentary Adventure List
Reviews
The Road to Patagonia is a stunning, intimate and unflinching series of love letters within a documentary - firstly, a love between two people, and secondly between humanity and the Earth. Ecologist Matty Hannon begins an incredible solo adventure, to surf the west coast of the Americas by motorbike, from the top of Alaska to the tip of Patagonia. But deep in the wilderness - alone with the wolves and the bears - the journeyer’s plans unexpectedly fall to pieces. After losing everything, and on the cusp of quitting he meets the girl of his dreams, a permaculture farmer named Heather. Shot over 16 years, the result is an adventurous exposé on the more-than-human-world, offering a physical and spiritual odyssey to better understand our place in Nature. Read More Read Less

Stephen Romei The Australian This film is part of a growing movement for the rights of nature, animal and non-animal. Rated: 3/5 May 10, 2024 Full Review Sandra Hall Sydney Morning Herald He has to crack at some point, I thought, suspecting a meltdown or two might have landed on the cutting room floor. However, his resourcefulness and determination soon made my scepticism seem like a waste of time. Rated: 4/5 May 2, 2024 Full Review Jane Freebury The Canberra Times (Australia) Documents what stands as a pretty stunning achievement for any enterprising young person addicted to travel, while it diarises the personal growth that took place along the way Rated: 3/5 Jul 20, 2024 Full Review Graeme Tuckett Stuff.co.nz On a big screen, with the cinematography glowing the way it should and Daniel Norgren’s unexpectedly excellent soundtrack playing over some decent speakers, The Road to Patagonia is a pretty rhapsodic way to spend 90 minutes of your life Rated: 4/5 Jun 30, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
