The story starts off with 18 year old Grace(Eva Amurri)being rejected a student loan due to a bad credit history.After her father died, her mother Rhonda (Susan Sarandon) took out credit cards in her name, maxed them out and didn't paid them back.Devastated by the possibility of not going to college Grace starts working a 4 dollar an hour job at Baton Rouge's water park.That's where she meets Dorian Spitz (Anton Yelchin), a 17 year old who is tired of his adoptive parents expectations and just wants to get away.Grace and Dorian bond very quickly and Dorian tries to convince Grace into going in business with him.Dorian's business consists of selling pot, mainly to rich kids.Grace is reluctant at first but she accepts the offer in hopes of making just the amount of money she needs to go to college.Along for the ride is Grace's 15 year old sister Taylor Elizabeth (Willa Holland)who is being forced into a modeling career by her mother. Middle Of Nowhere is well written and extremely well directed.Its a a very honest little film that relates more to real life then most films do. The acting was great, specially Anton Yelchin who delivered a flawless performance and considering some of his other work seems to be a really promising actor.All in All In The Middle of Nowhere is a great piece of work that combines several genres and its a breath of fresh air.One of the best indies I have seen.
8.5/10
