O Pioneer (2023)
Now my go-to WV movie pick
14 December 2023 - 2 out of 2 users found this review helpful.
It's impossible to accurately describe the creative genius of O Pioneer. I felt every emotion while experiencing the film, but none were stronger than the immense joy and pride that it left within. It was an honor to screen it at the Mtn Craft Film Festival in Clarksburg WV and it was a treat to see the audience so engaged that they pushed the Q&A into overtime.
The film beautifully weaves the story of three average (but not so average) Appalachians together using poetry, music, formalistic shots, cinema verité, and gorgeous jaw-dropping animation. This is now a go-to movie pick when friends from outside the state ask me about West Virginia!
