SYNOPSIS

Little Woods, North Dakota, a fracking boomtown well beyond its prime. Ollie is trying to survive the last few days of her probation after getting caught illegally running prescription pills over the Canadian border. But when her mother dies, she is thrust back into the life of her estranged sister Deb (James), who is facing her own crisis with an unplanned pregnancy and a deadbeat ex. The two find they have one week to settle the mortgage on their mother’s house or face foreclosure. As bills and pressure mount, Ollie faces a choice: whether to return to a way of life she thought she’d left behind for just one more score or to leave it all behind. A taught and affecting thriller about sisters pushed to extremes from award-winning director Nia DaCosta.

DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT

When I visited Williston, North Dakota, the boomtown upon which LITTLE WOODS is based, I found the modern Wild West. Life in fracking boomtowns in America was shocking to me. The inequities abounded, especially when it came to healthcare and reproductive rights. I found millennial prospectors and an economy evolving as a result of new demands for more housing, more booze, more drugs and more women. I found a place that felt, and often truly was, lawless.

Inspired to tell a modern-day western about an evocative and deeply American place, LITTLE WOODS became the story of Ollie - our reluctant hero forced to work outside the law to get what she needs. The wide open, isolating and enveloping western landscape would be our home and at the center would be our problem - how do you overcome your suffering in a place like this? When your choices are only as good as your scant options, what do you choose? At the frontier, the unknowable space beyond civilization, there is LITTLE WOODS.

Our film will be an opportunity for this piece of America to be seen and for the people who live in it to be heard.

Thank you,

Nia DaCosta
