Janet Planet

Drama113 min

Zoe Ziegler is Lacy, an 11-year-old spending the summer of 1991 in rural Western Massachusetts, where long days at home are filled by her imagination and her intense focus on her mother. Julianne Nicholson's Janet is a single parent whose presence pulls others into their orbit, and as three visitors drift through the house, Lacy watches the shape of that bond begin to shift. With Sophie Okonedo and Will Patton among the adults circling Janet, the film stays close to a child's view of time, attention, and the quiet changes inside a small world.
