A dramatic movie that follows a young girl named Sadie. Sadie's father was a soldier and she affected so badly after his death. Meanwhile, her mother decides to marry another man. Sadie tries to do whatever she can to make this man go away. She passes through a series of dramatic and exciting events.
Disquieting and deeply moving, Sadie takes its story to extreme lengths while still feeling utterly grounded in the emotional reality of its characters. It's not an easy watch, but it's worth it.
This tale of a teenaged girl's crossing the boundary from childhood to too-early adulthood, simultaneously a portrait of a society quietly yet inexorably collapsing, has a disturbing power that sneaks up on you.
