The Film
Guide Season is the story of four months in the life of Terry Woodrow, a hunting guide in Southwestern Montana. In his late thirties, Woodrow is at a crossroads — his marriage is in trouble, his 9-year-old son has growing pains, and every year the birds get tougher to find. As the landscape changes from green to gold to white, Woodrow tries to reconcile his life with the changing social attitudes that threaten to render his work obsolete or even immoral.
