Jess and Moss are second cousins in the dark-fire tobacco fields of rural Western Kentucky. Without immediate families that they can relate to, and lacking friends their own age, they only have each other. Over the course of a summer they venture on a journey exploring deep secrets and hopes of a future while being confronted with fears of isolation, abandonment and an unknown tomorrow.
Through a series of memories and vignettes, Clay Jeter creates a lyrical tale of two solitary, playful and young souls and imposes a complex assemblage of ways of looking and listening – planes of focus, select pieces of music, and expert sound engineering call attention to suggestive details, thus demonstrating the power of cinema to capture the sensation of memory, the beautiful and tragic feeling of the fleeting and the preciousness of youth and all of its disasters.
