An Odyssey Across the American West in 'The Pilgrim' Official Trailer

"Whatever you're looking to get back... is gone." Freestyle Digital Media has unveiled a trailer for an indie film titled The Pilgrim, the feature debut of filmmaker Joshua Benson. It's arriving on VOD to watch soon. The Pilgrim tells the story of Will, a successful American architect living in London, who is thrust into an odyssey through the American West upon learning of his estranged mother’s death. Confronted by his sister, Jeannie, he is tasked with transporting his mother's remains to their final resting place at his aunt's ranch. Will sets off on a journey that brings him back into contact with the ghosts of a life he had long since left behind – its landscapes, its history, and its traditions... It seems to be based on some of the director's own life, as Benson studied filmmaking at the London Film School. The team shot with no more than a skeleton crew and a few actors, working almost exclusively by natural light in order to bring an authentic portrayal of the American West to the screen. Starring Jeff Worden, Rachel Colwell, Julie Oliver-Touchstone, Rebekah Stein, Lou Llobell, and Emerald Clark. Good trailer - this has a very strong Malick vibe to it. // Continue Reading ›
