A mother-daughter love story of resilience and hope against the odds
Keema Waterfield grew up chasing music with her twenty-year-old mother
on the Alaskan folk festival circuit, two small siblings in tow. Summers
they traveled by ferry and car, sharing the family tent with a guitar,
cello, and fiddle. Adrift with a revolving cast of musicians, drunks,
stepdads, and one man with a gun, Keema yearned for a place to call
home. Preferably with heat and flushing toilets. Trying to understand
the absence of her pot-dealing father, she is drawn deeper into her
mother's past instead.
