American Woman
Sienna Miller delivers a compelling performance as a single mother in dire straits in director Jake Scott's slow-burning drama, which unfolds over 11 years filled with heartache and dwindling hope. Debra Callahan (Miller) lives in Pennsylvania with her teenage daughter Bridget (Sky Ferreira), who has an infant son called Jesse. The infant's father, Tyler (Alex Neustaedter), drifts in and out of Bridget's life and Debra attempts to support her daughter. She is aided by older sister Katherine (Christina Hendricks), who lives across the street with her husband Terry (Will Sasso) and children. When Bridget goes on a date with Tyler, Debra agrees to babysit little Jesse. The teenager never returns. Debra embarks on a long and painful quest for answers to learn the fate of Bridget as part of a wide-ranging police investigation led by Detective Sergeant Morris (E Roger Mitchell).
