Clearcut
Directed by Ryszard Bugajski
A white lawyer arrives at a remote area in Northern Ontario to defend Indigenous activists who are blocking a logging company's clearcut of old growth on their land. A pacifist by nature, and perceiving himself as sympathetic to Indigenous concerns, he finds his values shaken when he is paired with an angry, rogue Indigenous activist named Arthur - played by one of Canada's most towering and beloved actors, Graham Greene - who insists on kidnapping the head of the logging company to take him deep into the forest - where he hopes to teach him the price of his destruction.

As it always has been: fuck around and find out. A damn good movie.

great movie
The true horror in this movie is acknowledging what the the white man has done to indigenous people and Mother Earth. Graham Green is super sexy though and I liked watching him terrorize those rich little cry baby white boys :)
Arthur was that dude
