Through wry glances, missed signals, and messy truths, people fumble, flail, and occasionally flourish in their search for connection. From queer youth on the edge to siblings frozen in childhood wounds, from surreal city wanderings to van rides toward difficult choices; these stories shine with awkward grace and emotional honesty. Life doesn’t tie itself up neatly, but sometimes, it gives us just enough thread.
In 1970s Los Angeles, a rebellious queer teen gets thrown out of yet another foster placement. She is assigned to a mysterious and unconventional social worker who's tasked with finding her a new home before morning. As they travel the city at odds, seeking a new placement, the teen discovers that she has other options besides running.
