Rita Ronaldi (Callie Thorne) ekes out a living as a waitress until she is unceremoniously canned. Tough-minded but unskilled, she faces an uphill fight to find a job to support her and her teenaged son Matt (Rufus Read). Pudgy, bespectacled, and asthmatic, Matt is struggling himself, especially after he comes under the sway of local riff-raff Bret (Noah Fleiss), who loves sex, drugs, and leading helpless teens astray. Soon Matt worships Bret, and he descends into a life of criminality. ~ Jonathan Crow, Rovi

Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat, Spirituality and Practice
All the difficult and demanding challenges of single parenting are vividly conveyed in this offbeat drama.
-
Harry Haun, Film Journal International
Mostly, the movie just lies there like a lox.
