　　一场野火吞噬了家族世代相传的牧场，牛仔达斯迪最终落脚于美国西部广袤大地上的一处小型联邦应急管理局安置营。作为家族最后一代牧场主，他困在土地的遗产与变迁之间，进退两难。　　然而，他开始重新与年幼的女儿卡莉·罗斯、前妻鲁比建立联系，最终也走进了那个自己从未主动选择的周边社群——这里的人们都和他一样，失去了家园。他们一同在不经意间组建起一个社群，或许在这片荒芜之地，还能寻得希望、美好与未来。

　　After unhitching her camper at a lakeside in the mountains, Faye finds her rhythm cooking meals, retrieving crawfish from a trap, and scanning her old box radio for a station. She looks expectantly at the approach of a car or the mailman, explaining to neighboring campers that she’s waiting for a childhood sweetheart she hasn’t seen in decades. When he does arrive, Lito and Faye, both widowed, spend an evening reminiscing about their lives, losses, and loneliness.　　A whimsical romance, Max Walker-Silverman’s captivating debut feature shows an "American West" full of quietude, compassion, and introspection. It’s both naturalistic and vaguely surreal, blurring our sense of time and beauty, loss and vivacity, the grandiose natural world and intimate humanism. Career performances from Dale Dickey and Wes Studi bring an inescapable presence to people we don’t often see portrayed on film. They are gentle outliers possessed of resilience and existential spirit, seeking to process something elusive: a feeling of love for what’s no longer there. Like Faye turning her radio dial, they listen hopefully for the faint trace of a song.

在西部乡村的一个露营地，一个女人独自等待她过去的旧情人到来，不确定他的意图，同时对自己的意图感到害羞。
