This movie is based on the true story of Christopher McCandless (Emile Hirsch). Inspired by many books he read, he decided to wander around the nation right after graduation. He believes that his belongings like his money, car, diploma and even his identity don’t deserve him. He burned his papers and donated all his money to a charity.

He purposely didn’t keep in touch with his parents and sibling, in response with his call. It seemed that his sister is the only one who understands his “disappearance”. During his adventure, he met a lot of people that taught him many things that resemble whatever he read from the books.

By the way, the story has been well-written in a book with the same title around ten years ago. Have you read it, Rey? :)

My Rating: 3/6
