In her debut feature film, director India Donaldson tells the story of Sam (newcomer Lily Collias), a queer 17-year-old who goes hiking in the Catskills in upstate New York with her divorced father, Chris (James Le Gros), and his divorced friend, Matt (Danny McCarthy). As the only teen on the trip after Matt’s son drops out at the last minute, Sam leads the two bumbling middle-aged men through the lush green mountainside with a quiet intensity. Things chug on like normal until one moment heightens the stakes for all involved. Good One premiered at Sundance to much acclaim, with many comparing it to the works of directing great Kelly Reichardt. SIFF Programmer Megan Leonard says the film “could not be more PNW-coded despite not being made in the PNW. Take a hike in feminine discomfort.”
