Lighthouse International Film Society Film:SMALL, BEAUTIFULLY MOVING PARTS:

The movie, written and directed by Annie Howell and Lisa Robinson stars Anna Margaret Hollyman as Sarah Sparks, a freelance technoligist whose job requires her to ask people about their connection to technology and to have an insatiable curiosity about how things work. Obsessed with the inner workings of iMacs and old radios, she is so interested in the electronic configuration of a pregnancy test that she hardly registers that it reads positive.

Her uncertainties about motherhood trigger an impulsive road-trip across the country to visit her father (Richard Hoag) and to find her long-estranged mother (Mary Beth Pell) libing "Off-the-grid."

This movie of small, beautifully moving parts is unmistably human in its warmth and a wonderfully comic coming-of-parenthood tale for the internet age.
