Our take

An under-known figure of American independent film, Monte Hellman reignited his career as a director after a 21 year absence with Road to Nowhere. Its self-reflective film-within-a-film structure, carried by Tom Russell’s folk music, explores a film production through the filmmaker’s point of view.
