About

Fifteen-year-old Charlotte Flax is tired of her wacky mom moving their family to a different town any time she feels it is necessary. When they move to a small Massachusetts town and Mrs. Flax begins dating a shopkeeper, Charlotte and her 9-year-old sister, Kate, hope that they can finally settle down. But when Charlotte's attraction to an older man gets in the way, the family must learn to accept each other for who they truly are.
A chaotic, eccentric mother finds her strange rhythm through a performance that balances comedic absurdity with genuine warmth. This sun-drenched coastal tale captures the awkward transition from childhood to adolescence with sharp, heartfelt wit.
