To the North is a movie about kindness, moral dilemmas, and the inability to escape. The story is worth telling and presents you with a whole other world far away into the ocean. But I have to be fair. The movie is quite slow, and the dialogues are not well written and kill the story. The sound is amazing at some points, but the music will go better with a movie with more suspense and action. The actors are good, and I believe that with better dialogue, we would see them in an even better light. The camera is amazing, which is one of the best things in the movie. If you want to watch an independent festival movie, this is the right choice, but if you expect great cinema move along.
