Moving Back To Normal
When Reno's parents announce the family will be camping on an island, she realizes their drug-dependent/ drinking / hyperactive / disabled eccentricities are normal compared to this new plan. As it would turn out, the island is not the tropical type, but the sort in the middle of a busy traffic rotary. Her parents pack a tent, some blankets and a Porta-Potty to camp in the center of the busiest rotary on Cape Cod. So Reno quickly comes up with a survival plan which includes avoiding any and all street lunatics (besides family). Once they arrive, she is at least grateful their camp is hidden amongst tall trees. But events take a peculiar and disturbing turn, first when Reno sees her new neighbor, a bum residing on a nearby bench, and then when young sister Wiley pays the price for their mother's drinking binge in a bloody trauma to the head. Not only must Reno face her own responsibility in the accident, but little Wiley's life hangs by a thread as she withers away -- daily -- in a coma. Reno is desperate to help her sister fight for her life. But how?
