Rebuilding

Synopsis

After a catastrophic wildfire reduces his Colorado family ranch to ash, Dusty, a reserved and newly divorced cowboy, finds himself displaced and living in a FEMA trailer camp. Struggling to reconcile his identity as a man of the land with his current rootless reality, Dusty takes a grueling road construction job while navigating the quiet complexities of his grief. Amidst a diverse community of fellow survivors in the camp, he begins to discover the unexpected healing power of communal resilience. At the heart of his journey is a tender effort to mend a fractured bond with his young daughter, Callie-Rose, and find a stable middle ground with his ex-wife, Ruby. A poignant neo-Western drama, Rebuilding is a lyrical meditation on starting over when everything you built is gone, featuring a standout performance by Josh O'Connor as a man slowly piecing together a new life from the embers of the old.
