I loved watching Jesse OK Gray interacting with her 'mother' in the first half. Was the script completely improvised? If she truly memorized dialogue and blocking at such a young age she is indeed a phenomenal natural ... Otherwise her real mother (the Director) did a great job of capturing her daughters spontaneity and made the moment captured on film work to flush out a slice of real life story telling about this mother and young daughter. The rest of the plot (if you can call it a plot) never really had a huge arc -kind of like life; it just kept on keeping on and the moments that were missed were more clearly seen in the rearview mirror.
