Movie Title: Into the Wild

Released Year: October 2007

Cast: Emile Hirsch, Marcia Gay Harden, William Hurt, and Jena Malone

Into the Wild recounts the true story of Christopher McCandless (Emile Hirsch), a student-athlete at Emory University, as told by his sympathetic sister, Carine McCandless (Jena Malone). In rejection of a materialist, conventional life, and of his parents Walt McCandless (William Hurt) and Billie McCandless (Marcia Gay Harden), whom McCandless perceives as having betrayed him, McCandless destroys all of his credit cards and identification documents, donates $24,000 (nearly his entire savings) to Oxfam, and sets out on a cross-country drive in his well-used but reliable Datsun toward his ultimate goal: Alaska and, alone, to test himself and experience the wilds of nature. He does not tell his family what he is doing or where he is going and does not communicate with them thereafter, leaving them to become increasingly anxious and eventually desperate (courtesy of Wikipedia).

This movie tells about a boy, or a man, who tries to live and experience the wild of nature. Living every step by his own bare hand, refuse all the materialistic-kind-of-thing, just back to nature.
