"Chris McCandless, the day of his graduation, he abandons his life and his family, gives all his possessions to Oxfam, and embarks on an amazing journey on the road towards Alaska, where he intended to disappear into the wild.
A boy who runs away from everything to find the absolute freedom ... He flees from a father who has never heard her, and that a marriage based on lie, dominated by a mother of her husband and a society in which the only parameters of happiness is money, career, and "things" even from his sister who is the narrator of this story and believed to be the only person who can understand it. He wants to get rid of everything, but does not realize that what is on the run from which in fact are his fears, his anxieties, and above all running away from himself. You create a new name: Alexander Supertramp, but in reality refuses always have an identity of itself, to be recognized by the law with his name and his cognome.Va in search of adventure in the midst of the beauties of nature. Feels the need to experience new emotions, but does not realize that there is something that can never do without: human relationships. He meets a woman a couple of hippies who seems fond of a girl who seems to have a soft spot for him and an old man. Each of these people change after meeting him and understands something of herself. The old man tells the boy: "When you forgive you love, and when you love has been illuminated by the light of God" . Give to Chris, or better said Alexander, a great teaching, it does reflect on forgiveness that he could give his parents. This journey leads him to Alex to become wiser and allows "naming things" . Too bad the end result of this escape is not only the wisdom (about to die Alex understands the biggest thing: "happiness is only real when shared" ), but also its self-destruction.
