Taking place in Tillamook, Oregon, its the story of a troubled family and the distraction a young girl finds in the local legend of Spanish treasure. With a bunch of actors I recognize from other projects (ie the mother also has a significant role in Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion with Lisa Kudrow), it had pretty impressive star power for a low-budget indie. I had the pleasure of meeting the cast and makers of this film at a family film festival I went to with my parents and little brother. I was able to get a copy of their film after and watched it with my little brother-- it was actually really excellent! Not too many "family" movies interest him as he's 11 and thinks he's too mature for kid stuff, but we had a really nice time together. I would highly recommend this for anyone to watch.
