Storyline

Lamb, based on the novel by Bonnie Nadzam, traces the self-discovery of David Lamb in the weeks following the disintegration of his marriage and the death of his father. Hoping to regain some faith in his own goodness, he turns his attention to Tommie, an awkward and unpopular eleven-year-old girl. Lamb is convinced that he can help her avoid a destiny of apathy and emptiness, and takes Tommie for a road trip from Chicago to the Rockies, planning to initiate her into the beauty of the mountain wilderness. The journey shakes them in ways neither expects. Having just lost his father, depressed David Lamb unexpectedly strikes up an acquaintance with a precocious eleven-year-old girl named Tommie, who is equally lost and confronted with an existential cul-de-sac. As flawed David hangs out with Tommie over the following days, he eventually invites the girl to join him on a camping trip to the countryside. But can one short week heal the wounds of the past? — Nick Riganas
