My Louisiana Sky

Newcomer Kelsey Keel stars in this touching coming-of-age drama. Tiger Ann Parker (Keel) is a 12-year-old girl in 1950s Louisiana who lives with her mentally handicapped parents. Old enough now to realize the gravity of her parents' disability, Kelsey struggles to cope with these unsettling revelations. Her lively Aunt Dorie (Juliette Lewis) soon comes to the rescue, helping to ease both Kelsey's mind and her parents' burden.
