If there's anything we can learn from the creatures here, it's that any day in which you don't get stripped of your coat or eaten by a bear is probably a good one.
Jason Anderson, Toronto Star
Overview
An unsentimental elegy to the American West, Sweetgrass follows the last modern-day cowboys to lead their flocks of sheep up into Montana's breathtaking and often dangerous Absaroka-Beartooth mountains for summer pasture, revealing a world in which nature and culture, animals and humans, vulnerability and violence are all intimately meshed.

There are audience rewards for sticking with the herd and its lonesome cowboys.

Instead of rounding up information, this documentary about an arduous sheep drive across Montana is driven by the beauty of the landscape.
Joe Williams, St. Louis Post-Dispatch

It's a gorgeous and, believe it or not, riveting documentary...about sheep.
Michael O'Sullivan, Washington Post

It may not be your thing, but Sweetgrass is unlike anything you'll see in a theater this year. It bravely strays from the flock.
