But when they both fall for the same handsome artist (Boyd Holbrook) and Lily starts seeing him in secret, a lifelong friendship is tested. With Demi Moore, Richard Dreyfuss, Ellen Barkin, Peter Sarsgaard, and Clark Gregg, and featuring new music by Rilo Kiley's Jenny Lewis. DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT In the end, it’s always about family. We drag them along with us. Often without knowing. Good and bad. And then comes the moment when it dawns on us to take a look at the load. We can put it down, or carry it for the rest of our lives. If our parents love us, they encourage us to put it down. They own their mistakes. They wish for us to surpass them. To be free. And that sets the stage for our lives to begin. Complete with the magic of sex and adventure and risk taking. The highs and lows of our own making. The truth setting us free. This is the summer that Gerri and Lilly learn all this.
