Small Avalanches

Synopsis

Linda is 12 and she is bored. It seems to her that nothing matters and nothing ever happens. But, on this day, she meets an older man. Linda is amused, even exhilarated by their seemingly innocent encounter.
But things take a disturbing turn, and Linda’s world is transformed forever. The film is based on a story by Joyce Carol Oates.
