Based on a short story by Jon Raymond, WENDY AND LUCY chronicles the journey of Mary Carroll (Michelle Williams), an alienated women who sets her sights on Alaska in hopes of starting a new life with her dog, Lucy. Several obstacles impede her progress, forcing her to confront her increasingly dire financial situation. Stranded in Oregon when her car breaks down and lacking the funds to repair it, Wendy faces yet another challenge when Lucy, her best-friend, disappears. Directed by Kelly Reichardt (OLD JOY), WENDY AND LUCY employs a formal minimalist style that evolves into a subtle political road film by exposing life on the American fringe.

On November 5, 2001, Dr. Andrew Bagby was murdered in a parking lot in western Pennsylvania; the prime suspect, his ex-girlfriend Dr. Shirley Turner, promptly fled the United States for St. Johns, Canada, where she announced that she was pregnant with Andrews child. She named the little boy Zachary. Filmmaker Kurt Kuenne, Andrews oldest friend, began making a film for little Zachary as a way for him to get to know the father hed never meet. But when Shirley Turner was released on bail in Canada and was given custody of Zachary while awaiting extradition to the U.S., the films focus shifted to Zacharys grandparents, David & Kathleen Bagby, and their desperate efforts to win custody of the boy from the woman they knew had murdered their son. What happened next, no one ever could have foreseen
