Deep
in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, isolated from society, a
devoted father (Viggo Mortensen) dedicates his life to transforming his
six young children into extraordinary adults. But when a tragedy strikes
the family, they are forced to leave this self-created paradise and
begin a journey into the outside world that challenges his idea of what
it means to be a parent and brings into question everything he’s taught
them.
Nominated for Best Actor at the Academy Awards, the Golden Globes, the Film Independent Spirit Awards, and the BAFTA Awards. Winner of a Directing Prize at the Cannes Film Festival.
“Captain Fantastic leaves viewers with the cheering, deeply
affecting image of a dad whose superpowers lie in simply doing the best
that he can.” – Ann Hornaday, The Washington Post
