Nicole's survivalist father moves the family to a ramshackle forest homestead. When Mom runs off, Dad goes after her, leaving Nicole and younger sister Izzy behind and putting Nicole's survival skills to an unfair test; at the same time, brooding commune dweller Wolf stirs up Nicole's rebellious yearnings. Nicole's struggle to reconcile her upbringing with the costs of isolation is genuine and compelling.
