This feature doc was written, directed and produced by Sherry White and set in rural Newfoundland. The film focuses on a young woman, Mitsy ( Meghan Greeley), a teenager that has been abandoned by her mother. She is left to be brought up by her mercurial grandmother (Mary Walsh), who is well-meaning but oppressive. Mitsy dreams of being a hairdresser, but her life takes a turn when her mother prone to both the bottle and the sex trade, returns to Newfoundland. It's a family made up of three wildly dysfunctional generations, always poised to clash. All the while, Mitsy is learning about her emerging sexuality and develops a crush on a local misfit who works at a fast food joint.
