Quiet and quirky, yet refreshingly unpretentious, Off the Map is a welcome sojourn in a place that seems strange, yet entirely familiar.
Overview
An 11-year-old girl watches her father come down with a crippling depression. Over one summer, she learns answers to several mysteries and comes to terms with love and loss.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
[A] lovely film, which hardly ever makes a move that feels wrong.
A journey into an austere land of moviemaking where few artists dare go.
It's so focused on the subject that the downer mood becomes distressingly contagious.
Surprisingly enjoyable and insightful, full of hope and generosity, with characters and a story that not only satisfy but also shed light in various directions.
