This is a nuanced film, one that doesn’t lay itself out in what we would consider a satisfyingly linear fashion. But it’s the sort of thing that gets a grip on your spine when you’re least expecting it.

A Laotian hermit living on the fringes of a near-future society discovers that the ghost of a road accident victim can help him traverse time. Disregarding any consequences that his actions might have, he goes back in time fifty years to the moment of his mother's painful death, hoping to prevent her suffering.

What are critics saying?
Austin Chronicle by Josh Kupecki
One would think that a film concerning ghosts, time travel, and righting past wrongs would clearly lay out the rules, but Do and screenwriter Christopher Larsen are more interested in pastoral atmosphere than logic and with examining the emotional toll of regret, of mistakes, and how those things can follow you forever.
With its languid pace, rural setting, and natural beauty, The Long Walk is not your typical ghost story.
There’s style and a vivid sense of place in this most unusual movie, a film of future tech and sonic booming jets and unelectrified farms where the work is still done by hand, the way it has been for hundreds of years. That makes this “Walk” long, but rewarding in the end.
The New York Times by Teo Bugbee
The reward for waiting for the fog to lift is a movie that presents a unique take on science fiction, one that looks for the ghosts that linger on in a world that has been shaped by technology.
