Big Screen Country can inspire some bizarre visions. These three ambitious films, all made here in the Treasure State, are the proof. In this triptych, a young woman searches for meaning in an increasingly unnerving therapy group, scavengers journey across a blighted landscape, and three young Missoulians party in the wake of an almost-apocalypse. Montana has always been a refuge and inspiration for iconoclastic and boundary-pushing artists; these films are helping keep that tradition alive.
