It follows the emotional journey of a teenage girl (Esther McCormick), who’s relationship with her father (Darren Day) is tested by grief and extra responsibility for her younger siblings. She feels increasingly pushed out when her home gets opened up to a paying guest. Through a newfound friendship with a boy from Coventry, she discovers fun, freedom and autonomy.
The film’s gorgeous cinematography captures the city and the surrounding countryside with sun-dappled tenderness while Auerbach brings her trademark eye for intricate family dynamics and nuanced performances to make for a sweet, memorable and universal story. Not to be missed.
The protagonist in Rudy is a budding skateboarder. To compliment the screening, Fargo Village will be hosting a skate day from 4pm - 6pm. More details to be announced.
