About this movie

Jake, the twenty-something son of a washed-up travel writer, accompanies his eccentric, philandering father to the old family cabin in the woods. There, they will co-author a book that promises to restore the old man's reputation and heal older wounds between the two men. When things take a terrible turn, Jake is forced to come to terms with a man he barely knew. Exactly how Jake reconciles his estranged father's legacy will determine his own. Set against a breath-taking backdrop of autumnal forests and mirrored lakes, ALGONQUIN reflects the nature and paths of healing, in this story of father-son relationships, family secrets, and a hidden horseshoe.
