One early morning, twelve-year-old Greta is woken up by her dad Tom. Together with her two siblings, he’s moving them cross-country from the New England woods to the California desert. On the way, Tom tells enchanting stories, promising a California paradise to his kids. All that’s missing is Mom.
A tender indie from writer-director Olivia Silver, this father-daughter road-trip drama perfectly captures the troublesome threshold between childhood and adolescence. Co-starring great American actor John Hawkes, Arcadia took home the Berlinale Generation section’s top prize: the Crystal Bear.
