After being released from a psychiatric hospital, Sam (Jeannine Kaspar) moves in with her older sister, Ed (Sayra Player), to regroup. It's an arduous, emotionally taxing process, but Sam has an incentive: seeing her 7-year-old daughter, Lola, again. Just as Sam finds her footing -- a new job, a new boyfriend -- her ex-husband sues for full custody of Lola, causing Sam's newly stable world to crumble and forcing the fed-up mother to take extreme measures to reunite with her child.

Han S Mar 16, 2019 An indy gem.jeannine kaspar stars and carries the movie with a star's attitude and magnetism.this movie is all heart.no good against evil just a small human story about a self-destructive young girl who faces the possibility of losing the custody of her child after she tries to make,of what it seems,a suicide attempt.ambigious ending,but this movie stays within you for a while mostly because of this young actress who should have been a movie star after this movie.
