Storia
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.
Riassunto
Katie Says Goodbye is a poignant coming-of-age drama set in the American Southwest. The film follows Katie, a young woman with big dreams and limited means, as she navigates life after her mother's incarceration. Despite working multiple jobs, including waitressing and mechanic work, Katie finds herself unable to save enough money to move to San Francisco. In an act of desperation but also determination, she turns to prostitution, hoping to accumulate the funds needed for her fresh start.
