Maybe I'll Come Home in the Spring

1971 · 74 min

A quiet, melancholic character study of a young woman caught between two worlds, anchored by a tender performance and a pervasive sense of loss.

Overview: Dennie has returned from a year among the hippies to her superficial, image-conscious suburban family. She must face their disapproval of her actions. They refuse to even try to understand. She must also deal with an ex-lover, and a beloved young sister who is following in her footsteps, wanting the idealistic hippie life but making some rash decisions in the process.
How it feels: Melancholic, tense, earnest and dark. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Family, identity, coming-of-age, isolation
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
