Synopsis: When Derek Ridley's marriage breaks down, he starts making reckless attempts to get his family back, eventually hatching a desperate plan to take his young son to the Rocky Mountains where he believes a wilderness utopia will be found.... When Derek Ridley's marriage breaks down, he starts making reckless attempts to get his family back, eventually hatching a desperate plan to take his young son to the Rocky Mountains where he believes a wilderness utopia will be found. Initially the adventure represents an exciting and cathartic sense of freedom for father and son, but as the narrative crashes between past and present,and the stakes continue to rise, Derek's world of denial and half-truths are challenged in the most unexpected of ways. -- © 2001 Anagram Pictures [More]

An auspicious feature debut demonstrating its helmer's ability to sustain an intense but understated mood, Andrew Currie's Mile Zero plows familiar ground in an unfamiliar way.

In its rawness, Mile Zero can be brutal to watch, but it has an emotional honesty found in too few dramas.

...elevated considerably by [star Michael] Riley's central performance, which is often far more compelling and intriguing than anything else in the film.

[An] uneven but powerful B.C. indie by first-time director Andrew Currie.

Michael Riley is entirely believable as Derek. Sabrina Grdevich has a small but crucial role as the ex-wife, and she and Connor Widdows, who plays Will, are perfectly cast.
