Little Woods: Nia DaCosta Thrilling Directorial Debut Starring Tessa Thompson and Lily James

Little Woods, North Dakota, a place with pretty much nothing to live for besides your family. Ollie (Tessa Thompson) is trying to survive the last few days of her probation after getting caught illegally running prescription pills over the Canadian border. When Ollie mother dies, she must reunite with her estranged sister Deb (Lily James), who is facing her own crisis with an unplanned pregnancy and a deadbeat ex. The two find they have one week to settle the mortgage on their mother’s house or face foreclosure. As bills and pressure mount, Ollie faces a choice: whether to return to a way of life she thought she’d left behind for just one more score or to leave it all behind. A taught and affecting thriller about sisters pushing past their limits. This film is the directorial debut from the iconic Nia DaCosta.
