In 2011, Chicago filmmaker George Desort spent eighty nights on Isle
Royale, a wilderness island on Lake Superior. Traveling alone with
his camera equipment and as much food as he could fit into his kayak,
Desort explored the rugged terrain of the island, filming himself each
difficult step of the way. Desort’s breathtaking footage paired with
his personal, unvarnished story-telling result in a film that will
spur viewers to visit the outdoors as soon as possible.
