"The Lookout" (2012) - Sample Clip

Sample scene from our Season #1 Channel Premiere, THE LOOKOUT, by Brian Bolster. The full movie will be available tonight! THE LOOKOUT is an intimate look inside the solitary, day-to-day working life of Leif Haugen, a fire lookout spending a season scanning the landscape for untamed wildfires on top of a mountain in northwestern Montana. A primitive one-room structure serves as both his home and office, with only a radio to keep him connected to the outside world. Leif's job is to scan the valley floor for any signs of fire activity - one which calls for enduring long stretches of tedium and an eagle's eye and quick response. THE LOOKOUT captures the critical nature of one fire lookout's work as well as the life of quiet, contemplative solitude which accompanies his job. THE LOOKOUT won the Big Sky Award at the 2012 Big Sky Documentary Film Festival. It is available for purchase on iTunes through March of 2014.
