​

Dustin's marriage has hit a rough patch. He is struggling to cope with his wife's severe anxiety and high-functioning depression, and he's concerned about how this rift will affect their adopted son Damon. A mild-mannered carpenter, Dustin isn't sure how to communicate with his wife about his struggles anymore, and decides some time away will benefit everyone.

​

"Gone to the Movies" tells the story of Dustin and Damon moving to a rural town that's been badly damaged by wild fires. They meet Hope, an injured stray dog from the drive-in movie theater, and this fateful encounter completely changes their reason for being in this new place. Hope and a supportive cast of new friends and acquaintances ultimately give Dustin the tools he needs to heal and find a path forward with his wife Holly.

​

Set in the mid-nineties, this slice-of-life story reminds us why we love dogs so much and how they help us through life's ups and downs. Immerse yourself in a rich farm-town aesthetic while you discover the backstory of Hope the dog and how she survived on her own before meeting Dustin and Damon.
