Good One

Seventeen-year-old Sam shares a close and loving bond with her father, Chris. He fully accepts her for who she is, but beneath the surface, tensions about the past linger. When they go backpacking with Matt, an old friend of Chris, the dynamic begins to shift. The two men dominate the conversations with memories and personal woes, while Sam mostly listens and is only allowed to join in on their terms. When a seemingly harmless joke takes an uncomfortable turn, Sam realizes she’s on her own. Chris, from whom she expected support, lets her down. This moment forces her to see her father in a new light and make an important decision about her own future.
