Movie Haiku:30 year old woman travels well off the beaten path with her fiancé & their guide “in rural Georgia (formerly USSR). She is strong, athletic, and physically adroit--until something happens that shakes her confidence. Masterful example of how film can transport us into the body of another & make the world a more vivid place than it was before we made the trip with her.
