Good ideas let down by bad script

This movie had good intentions and the potential to convey an important message. However, it was let down by a poor script. Given that the film's intention was to highlight the wisdom of First Nations peoples, it could have done a lot more to centre the voice of Theo. Instead there was too much focus on the other characters and Theo's message didn't have the impact that it should have.

message movie has some issues

Theo is an Inuit from the Arctic. The elders have a nightmarish dream of the angry sun. They send Theo to deliver their message to the elders of the south. He arrives in NYC clueless to the modern world. He is befriended by homeless Bruce Lee fangirl Chloe (Dakota Johnson) and her circle of friends. They go to the UN but are taken to jail. They find an ally in Monica (Mira Sorvino).

This is one odd indie. I'm sure its heart is in the right place. The central environmental message is important but I fear the unrealism only detracts from it. Dakota Johnson is homeless like a billionaire is poor. The quirky humor is ill-fitting. At times, it's really heavy handed which also detracts from the central message. It's too bad because Theo is a really compelling character. A better writer could bring about a better message movie. This has too many awkward moments.
