Following the sudden death of her mother, young Alysia is uprooted by her father, Steve, in the search of a fresh start. Landing in 1970’s San Francisco, Steve flourishes with the freedom to develop his writing and date other men. However, his bohemian lifestyle clashes with the expectations of parenting. As Alysia grows into a young woman on the cusp of adulthood, their bonds are tested in surprising ways.
Based on Alysia Abbott’s best-selling memoir and produced by Academy Award winner Sofia Coppola, this stunning coming-of-age Sundance hit stars BAFTA nominee Emilia Jones (CODA, The Running Man), Scoot McNairy (A Complete Unknown, C’mon C’mon), Cody Fern (American Horror Story), music icon Adam Lambert, Oscar nominee Maria Bakalova (Borat 2, The Apprentice) and Oscar winner Geena Davis (Thelma & Louise, Blink Twice).
