Story
Katie (Olivia Cooke), a kindhearted and determined 17-year-old girl living in the American Southwest, decides to turn to prostitution to fund her dream of moving to San Francisco. Her alcoholic mother, Jackie (Mia Wasikowska), is incarcerated, leaving Katie to navigate life on her own. While working at a repair shop and waiting tables, she saves money but realizes it's not enough for her plans. Desperate to escape her trailer park lifestyle, she resorts to selling herself to truckers along the highway.
