Into the Wild

Into the Wild was true story based on the life of a boy who after college disappeared into the wild. Rejecting his parents middle class/upper class values and wanting to live off the land, he left his possessions, money and everyone he knew behind, invented a new name for himself and journeyed through the natural landscape en route to his final destination, Alaska. he seemed to touch everyone he encountered with his openness and perhaps naive goals. After two years, alone, he was ready to come back out of nature, but was blocked by nature. He ended up eating poison berries by mistake and starved to death, only to be found by hunters a few weeks after hos demise. The movie was moving and touching.
