SYNOPSIS
The last day of the 1948 summer is a day eleven
year-old Kath (Jennifer Miller) can be all the things she wants to
be--pirate captain, Tarzan, or marble champion.
Because she's entering the sixth grade on
Monday, her mother (Radha Delamarter) has decided that Kath must
get her pigtails cut off and
a perm in her hair. Her mother's desire to rearrange
Kath's hair is meant to change more than her
looks. Kath's father (Bill Vint), who helped
her build a clubhouse and taught her to play baseball, is
caught in the middle.
This beautifully
reminiscent film captures the heart of small town
America while transcending both time and place. All
audiences will enjoy this genuine tale of conformity
and growing pains.
