Anna is stuck: she’s approaching 30 and has just moved back to her rural home-town, and into a shed in her mother’s backyard. She spends her time working a menial job at a local boating center and hides in the depths of her imagination, making movies with her thumbs. Irritated by her childish behavior, Anna's mother insists that she move out of her shed and on with her life. When a troubled young boy starts hanging around, the two form an unlikely bond. Through their strange yet mutually beneficial friendship, Anna slowly begins to confront her perpetual state of arrested development.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A tender portrait of stunted adulthood that never condescends to its protagonist, finding quiet wisdom in thumb puppets and unlikely friendships. The film moves at the pace of someone learning to leave their shed behind, slowly, uncertainly, but with genuine warmth.
