Olivier S. Garcia

In Between These Mountains, part home and part road movie, delves into men's emotional struggles with migration and the consequences of failed fatherhood.

As the journey unfolds, storm clouds gather, and each man confronts personal struggles tied to their family history. The film blends the intimacy of a home movie with the adventurous spirit of a road film, illustrating how a journey through the wild can lead to forgiveness, self-discovery, and a renewed appreciation for the ties that bind us.
