Sweetgrass

Sweetgrass (2009) is a documentary film directed by Lucien Castaing-Taylor, Ilisa Barbash rated 6.8/10.

An unsentimental elegy to the American West, Sweetgrass follows the last modern-day cowboys to lead their flocks of sheep up into Montana's breathtaking and often dangerous Absaroka-Beartooth mountains for summer pasture, revealing a world in which nature and culture, animals and humans, vulnerability and violence are all intimately meshed.
