Rivers and Roads

When Millie was confronted by the reality of her mother’s mental health, she wasn’t prepared for the weight of responsibilities that prompted her to abruptly switch family roles. Between jobs, relationships, and travels, Millie took a journey that seemed like more of an escape at first. With roots extending for generations through Appalachia, Millie chose to leave her hometown and explore paths less traveled. With the companionship of her two dogs, they set out into the unknown, meeting new and familiar faces along the way. Rivers and Roads is a story of a sacred bond between a mother and daughter and learning to navigate grief, acceptance, and new beginnings.
