Wind River

Wind River (2017) is Taylor Sheridan's crime drama you can watch online on iFILM. Wyoming in deep winter, snow up to the knees, a Native American reservation. Tracker Cory Lambert stumbles on the body of a barefoot young woman miles from any shelter.

The case lands on rookie FBI agent Jane Banner (Elizabeth Olsen), sent alone, dressed wrong for the cold and unfamiliar with how things work out here. Without Cory she can't cover a mile: he reads prints in the snow like an open book. For the hunter (Jeremy Renner), the investigation is personal — the dead girl was his daughter's friend, and an old wound that never closed splits open again. The longer the trail runs, the clearer it gets that the answer hides not in the woods but among the people living right there.

This is the directing debut of Sheridan, the screenwriter behind Sicario and Hell or High Water. The film puts a spotlight on missing Indigenous women, an issue official records barely bother to count. The frozen landscape works as one more silent witness. Stream Wind River (2017) online on iFILM.
