Hold the Dark (2018)



After the deaths of three children suspected to be killed by wolves, a writer is hired by the mother of a missing six-year-old boy to track down and locate their son in the Alaskan wilderness.

Atmospherically dark and violent drama with great landscape cinematography and excellent cast ultimately disappoints by refusing to give any explanation or sense to what's going on.

After reading the book that does deliver more explanation to the plot and motives of the protagonists and rewatching the movie it is obvious that it was deliberately made to leave the audience puzzled.
