The teen girl in the center of this rough, loving story is in serious trouble. Her parents aren't helping. Her brother has his own life, or so he thinks. Dickerson hold up a mirror to our unspoken mutual obligations and find in them a mortal threat ... and a thin promise of hope.
The movie is beautifully shot, BTW. DP Robert Kraetsch's handheld camera gives juts the right touch of being there without intruding. Cavazos, Proft, Hamlin, and Erbe are well cast & deliver dimensioned, kitchen-sink performances.
I'd love to see this movie open wide ... somehow, somewhere!
