Synopsis
SHOEBOX takes place on a Pennsylvania farm in the 1980’s. If an animal didn’t serve their purpose, they did not survive. Five-year-old Beth, the youngest in a large family, struggles to overcome these parallels in her own life. She makes it her mission to care for the weak and the wild. Based on the autobiographical book “Shoebox Funeral” by Elisabeth Voltz.
