Little Lake is a dark comedy about a young woman who has lost her way. Lake, an alcoholic, hits rock bottom when she loses custody of her daughter. In her attempts at recovery, Lake ends up in therapy. Group therapy leader, Autumn (Macy Gray) instructs Lake to write letters to younger versions of herself. This exercise forces Lake to confront her childhood – a powerful and emotional self- inspection. The sometimes humorous antics of the Little Lakes help Lake remember who she is and become the person she is meant to be.
