“Sometimes you have to go south to find home.”
Unpopular and down-on-her-luck, Marge is already having a tough time navigating the minefield that is her suburban high school. But Marge’s life is completely upended when her beloved mother and only champion dies in a tragic accident. With nowhere else to turn except her ultra-conservative grandparents, Marge decides instead to hunt down her estranged father, a former soccer star living in rural Mexico as a beach bum and coach to the local women’s team. Neither is ready for such a big change, but the best shot they have at fixing their past and moving forward is together.
A bittersweet yet heartwarming dramedy, this film navigates the complexities of loss and the unexpected joy of new beginnings. It's a character-driven journey of healing and connection, set against a vibrant Mexican backdrop, offering both poignant reflection and gentle humor.
