After refusing to obey a senior surgeon, JOHN LAKE, an American volunteer doctor in Laos, is instructed to take a leave of absence. To regroup, he travels to a remote island in the south of Laos. The solace of the island is shattered when John intervenes in the sexual assault of a young Laotian woman, accidentally killing her assailant. Horrified by the violence and the prospect of being sent to prison, John panics and flees. He soon discovers that he's wanted not only for the murder of an Australian Senator's son, but also for the rape of the very woman he saved. What follows is a harrowing journey through the Laotian interior that will test and transform John in profound ways. (Elevation Pictures)

Un parcours "survival" parfait à travers les sentiments intérieurs d’une personne terrifiée au bon cœur qui a commis une sacrée erreur et veut se sauver. Réaliste, émotionnel, réfléchi, rempli d'une tension constante jusqu'à l'explosion. Et magnifiquement joué par Rossif Sutherland, qui est constamment devant la caméra. La fin aurait pu être résolue d'une meilleure manière, plus sombre et plus psychologique, mais même ainsi, c'est un excellent film. JEREMIE

I can't help but feel that this film had the potential to be a proper thriller, but in the end, it's just a personal drama with an incredibly slow pace that I found off-putting. It has an interesting setting but it is utilized only as a backdrop and for comprehension issues. For me, this film doesn't offer anything great.
