the filmmaking son Jake (Nat Wolff) dicovers that he has the hots for a girl who works at a local coffee
shop.

This film has some great lines in it and below are a few of
them culled from it:
“Exclusion is an unnecessary violence.” –Grace
“Color is the key to transformation.”–Grace
“Turn back your heart to the day that we met,
My love’s not through with you yet.”--singer at a festival
“Sometimes in art, like in life, you have to accept the fact
that things aren’t going right, and you don’t quite know where you’re going,
and you have to accept that because that’s when transformation can happen.”
–Grace
