After graduating from Emory University in 1992, top student and athlete Christopher McCandless abandons his possessions, gives his entire $24,000 savings account to charity, and hitchhikes to Alaska to live in the wilderness.
Editor's Verdict
"Into the Wild is a biographical drama focused on extreme non-conformity and survival in the wilderness. There is no meaningful connection to the Christmas season in its setting, plot, themes, or iconography."
