Synopsis

It’s Alice’s 13th birthday and her father Jake’s gift to her is a shiny new gun and a lesson on how to shoot it at the local suburban gun range. He wants to teach his maturing daughter how to “protect herself” in the adult world. Waiting to connect with him, despite her fears Alice forces herself to shoot. To everyone’s surprise she is a naturally great marksman, and she thinks she has finally obtained the approval from her father that she desires so much. But when Jake and Alice return to the real world outside the rifle range, Alice discovers how fleeting that sense of approval can really be.
