Thirteen-year-old Lane struggles with the repercussions of her iconoclast mother's erratic moves through the communes and dusty back woods of 1974 Northern California.
Young star Sophia Mitri Schloss has an appealing, serious presence-and as Lane, she shows the helplessness of watching her mother spiral their life out of control, unable to do anything to ground them.
This atmospheric and keenly observed feature captures with bittersweet lyricism the pathos of growing up subject to the whims of free-spirited grownups who themselves could use some adult supervision.
