Seventeen-year-old Sam lives in New York City and embarks on a camping trip to the breathtaking Catskill Mountains with her father and his best friend. This intimate coming-of-age drama explores the evolving relationship between Sam and her father, as well as how her connections with other male figures in her life have changed over the years. GOOD ONE is an indie gem that premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and features the enchanting Lily Collias in the lead role. A very promising debut! 'Every minute, new dynamics in the relationships of the three protagonists are being revealed. An incredible, intelligently told film, India Donaldson is definitely the new directing talent in US cinema.' – Anja Fröhner
