“Truly masterful.”
—Alissa WIlkinson, New York Magazine

“This staggering debut relitigates the past and the perspective one had while living it, performed with the regret and acceptance that sadly only comes with time.”
—Jacob Oller, AV Club

“A memory-film that captures inner life with physical style: patience, speed, precision, and breathtaking leaps.”
—Richard Brody, The New Yorker

In the late 1990s, eight-year-old Sasha and her family relocate to a new home on Vancouver Island, but their fresh start is interrupted by increasingly dangerous behavior from the eldest son, Jeremy. At wit’s end, their parents are presented with a shattering choice.

Award-winning director Sophy Romvari’s feature debut is a lyrical and profound testament to the things we carry with us, masterfully chronicling the haze of a languid summer and the hyaline clarity of the moments that defined it.
