Event Details
When two troubled young adults escape from a psychiatric facility to embark on a cross-country search for truth, beauty, and the meaning of life, their mothers form an uneasy alliance and take off on a journey of their own, hoping to find their kids before it's too late. A moving exploration of family, friendship, and how far we are willing to go for the ones we love, The Other Side of Nothing is a powerful read about loss, self-determination, and second chances.
