Manifest West is a coming of age story told through the eyes of Riley Hayes, a 10-year old girl whose family moves off the grid into untamed North American wilderness. It’s their attempt to establish some form of normalcy, to thrive off the land and to escape the pressures of modern society. But the family has its own internal pressures, building. You can’t escape your problems, no matter how far you move up a mountain.

The film was made during the height of the pandemic with primary photography taking place in the mountain community of Forest Falls, California.
