Lane is a 13-year-old girl coming of age on a Northern California commune in the 1970s. While Lane enjoys the freedom of living off-the-grid with her mother and younger siblings, she craves a stable "normal" life, a life she's only seen in pictures from a stolen Sears catalog. Lane must navigate her troubled mother Hallelujah while trying to care for her younger brother and sister.—JW

Based on Clane Hayward's memoir 'The Hypocrisy of Disco,' 'Lane 1974' is the luminous, enigmatic journey of a teenage girl trying to survive an American counterculture. It's 1974 and 13-year-old Lane lives on a beautiful Northern California commune, wild and free, until her mother, a rebel and iconoclast, alienates their small group from the security and safety of the community land. They begin moving from one unlikely situation to another, leaving normal life far behind.—SJ Chiro
