Alone in the
Wilderness is the story of
Richard Proenneke as told in the book, "One Man's Wilderness" by Sam
Keith. The movie uses movie footage shot by Proenneke to make the 60
minute movie. The movie shows how Proenneke built his cabin , how he
fished and hunted for food and how he survived the long winters in
isolation. The movie is good to watch for those interested in wood craft
and living in the bush; Richard is a consummate craftsman. There is not a
story line other than the chronological sequence of events.
