Into the Wild is a biographical adventure drama directed by Sean Penn, based on Jon Krakauer’s nonfiction book. The film tells the true story of Christopher McCandless, a young man who gives up his possessions and savings to embark on a solo journey across America, ultimately seeking a life of pure freedom in the Alaskan wilderness. Beautiful, introspective, and haunting, Into the Wild explores the exhilaration and dangers of living completely on one’s own terms.

Emile Hirsch lost over 40 pounds to portray Christopher McCandless’s physical transformation throughout the journey. Sean Penn spent nearly a decade securing the rights to the story, gaining the blessing of McCandless’s family before proceeding. Much of the film was shot on location in the places McCandless actually visited, including Alaska, South Dakota, and Arizona. The original bus where McCandless lived in Alaska became a pilgrimage site for fans until it was removed in 2020 for safety reasons. The film's soundtrack, featuring original songs by Eddie Vedder, was critically acclaimed and perfectly captures the film’s spirit of longing and exploration.
