October Country is a beautifully filmed portrait of an American family struggling for stability while haunted by the ghosts of war, teen pregnancy, foster care and child abuse. With rarely seen intimacy, sensitivity and respect, this vibrant documentary examines the forces that unsettle the working poor and the violence that lurks beneath the surface of American life.

Lyrical, beautifully filmed rumination on the marginalized working poor, marinated in regret, like David Gordon Green directed a documentary.

I don't really get the David Gordon Green comparisons, apart from the superficial "ruminative" nature montages, this is essentially more like the crew of Here Comes Honey Boo Boo aspiring to Gummo. Sorry.
