A tender, introspective summer portrait of a young girl's intimate world with her mother, told through observation and imagination rather than plot.

In rural Western Massachusetts, 11-year-old Lacy spends the summer of 1991 at home, enthralled by her own imagination and the attention of her mother, Janet. As the months pass, three visitors enter their orbit, all captivated by Janet.
