Mo Ogrodnik's debut feature is a low-budget independent
drama about the dangerous budding sexuality of two teen sisters. Fourteen-year-old fraternal twins
Violet (
Monica Keena) and
Rosie (
Daisy Eagan) barely escape from a fiery car wreck that claims the lives of their parents. Because their father was abusive, they are happy to be free, and they strike out for Kentucky. Instead, the girls end up on a run-down Army base, where they befriend the hirsute civilian groundskeeper,
Pete (
Gordon Currie).
Pete, who supplements his income by selling contraband porn magazines and junk food to the soldiers, lies to the base commander and claims that the girls are his nieces. The runaway sisters move into
Pete's quarters and
Violet begins a flirtatious relationship with him, while the tomboy
Rosie learns how to shoot a gun from a kindly military police officer,
Ken (
Ron Brice). After charged episodes playing "spin the bottle" and a base dance, the relationship between
Violet and
Pete turns sexual. Dismayed,
Rosie retaliates by having her own sexual encounter with a soldier.
