Michelle Williams delivers an incredibly nuanced performance as Wendy, an impoverished woman on the road to Alaska looking for work. Traveling with her best friend, a dog named Lucy, Wendy’s difficult journey veers towards tragedy after her car breaks down and she is arrested for shoplifting dog food. After posting bail, Wendy cannot find Lucy, initiating a heartbreaking search for her beloved companion. A deeply moving portrait of struggle, Kelly Reichardt’s WENDY AND LUCY is an emotionally intelligent testament to the transient nature of connection.
