Summary
An astonishingly beautiful and gripping Western starring Viggo Mortensen, JAUJA (pronounced how-ha) begins in a remote outpost in Patagonia during the late 1800s. Captain Gunnar Dinesen has come from abroad with his fifteen year-old daughter to take an engineering job with the Argentine army. Being the only female in the area, Ingeborg creates quite a stir among the men. She falls in love with a young soldier, and one night they run away together. When Dinesen realizes what has happened, he decides to venture into enemy territory, against his men's wishes, to find the young couple. Nominated for the Un Certain Regard Award and Winner of the FIPRESCI Prize at the **Cannes Film Festival.** Official Selection at the **Toronto International Film Festival.** *"Alonso sustains an atmosphere of otherwordly immanence in a vivid setting, with a style involving long takes with characters posed as if in tableaux vivants." - Peter Keough, **Boston Globe***
