I started watching this thinking I'd only watch a couple minutes to see what its about, and an hour later I was still sitting there watching it. This subject matter is of personal interest to me. I travelled cross country, alone, in my early 20's. I didn't walk, alas, but I've been through the same emotions and thoughts that Lee presents in his movie. Inspired by an interview with Werner Herzog in which he said "forget film school, one should make a journey alone, on foot, for five thousand kilometers, "let's say from Madrid to Kiev". Lee quit his job and did just that, taking his camera with him on his travels. More info can be found on the vimeo site and his website.
