“A story of young love, wild adventures, and a very neat escape.”

ComedyDramaRomance

Set on an island off the coast of New England in the summer of 1965, Moonrise Kingdom tells the story of two twelve-year-olds who fall in love, make a secret pact, and run away together into the wilderness. As various authorities try to hunt them down, a violent storm is brewing off-shore – and the peaceful island community is turned upside down in more ways than anyone can handle.

VIBE

This film feels like a meticulously crafted, bittersweet summer dream. It's a charmingly quirky journey into innocent first love and the yearning for belonging, all wrapped in a warm blanket of nostalgic whimsy and deadpan humor. A delightful escape.
