The Hunter movie scene

Rafi Pitts retreats to the forest in The Hunter.

Iranian writer and director Rafi Pitts stars in his 2010 foreign language thriller movie The Hunter.

In the film, Pitts plays Ali, an ex-con who makes the most of his return to a normal life by spending as much time possible with his wife and young daughter. To escape the stress of urban living, he retreats to his favorite pastime: hunting in the secluded forest north of town. After tragedy strikes his family, Ali loses control and randomly kills two police officers. He escapes to the forest, where he is soon arrested by two other officers. But when the three men finds themselves lost in their wooded surroundings, the boundaries between the hunter and the hunted begin to change…

Following its well-received rollout to dozens of international film festivals and theatrical screenings, The Hunter played in U.S. theaters on a limited basis in January 2012.

There are no bonus features on the DVD of the film, which is presented in Farsi with English subtitles.
