SCREENING IN THE BERNARD OSHER FOUNDATION AUDITORIUM


[A] fantastically assured debut that unfolds with the pointillistic detail of a great short story.
— David Ehrlich, Indiewire

90 minutes. Rated R. Directed by India Donaldson. In English. DCP.

A standout success at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival, Donaldson’s piercing debut drama stars astonishing newcomer Lily Collias as 17-year-old Sam, forced to play mediator and peacemaker while on a three-day backpacking trip in the Catskills with her father (James Le Gros) and his oldest friend (Danny McCarthy), whose gently contentious back-and-forth threatens to reach a boiling point as their trek goes along. An exquisitely detailed and beautifully performed three-way character study describing the discoveries of youth, and the boundaries of experience that “announces the arrival of a wonderful new voice in writer-director India Donaldson.” (Harper’s Bazaar).
