When one of the teens is sent away because the mother can't cope with his autism, the oldest of the siblings devises a plan to get their brother back and embark on a life changing adventure across the Southwest in their deceased father's station wagon. In their attempt to find their grandmother's home thousands of miles away, they find themselves confronted with detours that ultimately slow them down, but thrust them into a coming of age journey to be remembered. -- (C) Official Site

Critic Reviews
-
Daniel M. Gold, New York Times
Many of those involved are at the early stages of their careers and may be excused. You wonder, though, what Ms. Arquette was thinking.
-
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel
Co-director Chad Waterhouse's script is filled with melodramatic contrivances.
-
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times
This graceful, easy-to-take picture is a nifty example of resourceful independent filmmaking, with a perfectly blended ensemble cast in well-drawn roles.
-
Dennis Harvey, Variety
This 1970s period piece is nicely crafted and sweetly engaging overall, despite some stilted dialogue and crudely melodramatic elements.
-
Andrew Schenker, Slant Magazine
A collation of pseudo-profound dialogue and cameos by compassionate strangers, Exodus Fall is a road movie in which, once out of Texas, nothing bad can ever happen to our children.
