A wayward millennial escapes to a South Dakota ranch, unhinging her Uncle's placid alcoholic life.
Andie (Jessica Rothe) escapes to a rural ranch in South Dakota.
But the peace and quiet she desperately craves is upset by her Uncle Erwin, an ogre-like loner barely surviving on a steady diet of beans and beer.
Together, this mismatched duo reach an emotional implosion, spilling closely guarded secrets, and ultimately finding healing and humour in each other's pain.
Director Andrew Kightlinger creates a quiet and subtle take on addiction and familial bonds.
Its rural location adds a sense of vastness and beauty that heightens emotions and allows sole focus on its actors.
