Billie and her younger brother Nico grow up in a dysfunctional family. Their mother is desperately clinging to a man who is an abusive drunk.
The filmmaking style is naturalistic and experimental. There is a mixture of black and white and color filming. Both are very beautiful but I'm not sure of each's significance. There are some really powerful moments. I would like the abuse to come sooner and to have more time for their adventure. I prefer a longer road trip for the kids and more story. The movie does have its slow spots. I want less of those and more well-constructed stories.
