Ths multi-award winning movie (and Sundance favourite) is set in the Ozarks backwoods. The main occupation there is making and dealing illegal drugs. When dad gets bust, and skips bail, the sheriff comes to give the family a week's notice before eviction, as the house was surety for the bail. The 17 year daughter, effectively head of the household, resolves to track dad down and save the family. She sets off, going from one relative or contact to the other, and has to deal with the underground code of silence and lack of co-operation, balanced with their commitment to family. The director and cast have generally been well praised for their efforts.
