Om denne film

Lauduree is a 13-year-old loner, passionate about nature and obsessed with ecological disaster. Greta, her grandmother, is a fiery 50-something nurse jaded by alcohol and disappointment. When Lauduree's mother Tanya runs away to pursue her long-held dream of becoming a make-up artist for the stars, Lauduree tries to make it on her own, clinging to the secluded rural trailer where she lives, to see through her personal carbon sequestration experiment. When she is caught shoplifting, her cover is blown and she is forced to move in with Greta.

The new situation compromises Greta's already laid plans to sell her house and move away to live with her boyfriend, Ed. Convinced that her mother will return for her, Lauduree searches for ways to stay in town. She turns to the junior high science club: an activist teacher she idolizes and a lonely new boy. Meanwhile, Greta, daunted by commitment, begins using Lauduree as an excuse to sabotage her plans with Ed. As the two women struggle with Tanya's disappearance, they inch closer together, learning to trust each other as they leap into the unknown.

Featuring humorous, sharply drawn characters and powerful performances by Amy Madigan, Lili Taylor, and Perla Haney-Jardine, Future Weather is about finding the courage to survive change.

Bedømmelser og anmeldelser

I watched it hoping it would get better. Every hippie global warming cliche' you could think of was in this movie. This movie is made for urban chicken farmers.....

This was an awesome movie to watch- as it was filmed in our own neighborhood. Perla Haney Jardine did a spectacular job as an emerging actress and her growing skills as an actress helped to magnify all other actors' and actresses' performances in the movie.

Little slow at times but it flows with the story which I believe to be well thought up and touching. Worth watching for sure.
