To Build a Fire

2003, French. Directed by Luca Armenia.

Against nature, a man faces his mortality...

A man is traveling through the great North American wilderness, in temperatures of seventy degrees below zero, with only his dog for a companion. As he crosses a frozen stream, a misstep puts his foot through the ice. He knows he must find a way to build a fire to warm himself, or face death. Frenzy and desperation take over, challenging all attempts to survive..
