A young man is hitchhiking across New Zealand, making his way through the striking stretches of landscape. But he's not just enjoying the scenery -- he's on a search for his birth mother, and by extension, his identity.
Along the way, he encounters an intimidating man with unsavory tattoos inked all over his body -- and discovers just what "family" really means.
Director Matthew Saville's gem of a drama may feature a situation not everyone can relate to, but the skilled script and finely tuned directing helps viewers to understand the desire for connection and understanding -- and thirst for love -- that drives the main character.
"Hitch Hike" culminates in an emotionally devastating moment that will break your heart and shatter expectations -- but then allows us to uncover just what compassion and consolation looks like.
