so there’s this movie I saw as a kid I think it’s set in America but like in the early 1900s. An American boy is on a train and he meets a Native American boy (both in their late teens) they both somehow end up getting in the woods where they have to survive a bear and the winter. The native American boy then gets sad because he cant do his becoming a man ritual but the American boy helps him. does anyone know what the name would be?
“Lost in the Barrens” (1990)

“Lost in the Barrens makes for another “lost in the Canadian wilderness” survival tale about a Cree Indian boy and a white teen working together in sweet harmony in order to get through alive.”
