Film Information
"Everyone says, 'Don’t make a film with kids or animals.' I somehow thought it would be a great idea to do both on my first film." For his debut feature, director Cole Webley took on the incredible task of shooting a low-budget independent film in just under two weeks with a main cast of two kids under the age of 10, a dog, and the wonderful John Magaro as their leader. This beautiful, poignant, coming-of-age drama will leave viewers speechless.
A young girl and her brother are awoken by their father and loaded into the car on an early morning in 2008. As they road trip across the American West, she discovers the truth about their seemingly spontaneous journey.
Reviews
"I was instantly lost in Magaro’s performance, watching this gifted actor capture the truth of his character’s predicament instead of the cliché of it. So when Omaha reaches its destination, the movie hit me like a truck." – Roger Ebert
