영화 정보

Following the closure of a gypsum mine in the rural Nevada town she calls home, Fern (Frances McDormand) packs her van and sets off on the road. Exploring life outside conventional society as a modern-day nomad, Fern soon discovers a resilience and resourcefulness that present her with experiences unlike any she's known before. Along the way in this story of hope, she meets other nomads who become mentors in her life amidst the vast, sometimes breathtaking landscape of the American West. From Searchlight Pictures and acclaimed director Chloé Zhao, NOMADLAND features real-life nomads Linda May, Swankie and Bob Wells. With care and insight, Zhao crafted the screenplay, based on Jessica Bruder's book "Nomadland: Surviving America in the Twenty-First Century." McDormand brings Fern to life with a powerful, authentic performance. Also starring David Strathairn in a gripping turn as a man Fern befriends, NOMADLAND is a fascinating celebration of humanity, independence and adventure.

This wasn't much more than a docco with no plot ending etc. but with a recognised actor. I feel sorry for the films beaten by this one. It could finish my interest in movies forever. There was no entertainment value at all

I found this to be powerful, beautiful film. I thought it was going to be about retirees traveling America in 5-star motor home style. 15 minutes in I was wondering what I was in for as I was confronted with some of my worst fears (as a single, 52 year-old ageing woman) but this is not a depressing film at all. It is slow, subtle, multi-layered, honest, raw, with the most wonderful, rich characters. It moved me deeply and I really loved it.

Probably a great movie but it's hard to watch when Google has it in the 'new movie release' section but its only pre-order.
