Description

Debra Granik directs this tense drama based on the novel by Daniel Woodrell, set in the poverty-stricken backwoods of the Ozarks. Jennifer Lawrence stars as 17-year-old Ree Dolly, who is forced to take care of her little brother and sister, as well as her catatonic mother, after she discovers that her father, who has been running a crystal meth laboratory, has been arrested and has put the family home up as collateral for bail. Now, if he fails to attend the court hearing, the family will lose its home.

Risking her own life and fiercely protecting her mother and younger siblings, Ree sets out to track down her father and piece together the truth behind his disappearance.
