About
Set in Eugene, Oregon, Maxie follows a teen couple’s life on the streets, portraying their unrelenting bond through day-to-day journeys and interactions. Despite their disparate socioeconomic backgrounds and upbringing, the two navigate the perpetual conflict between breaking free from drug addiction and the fallible steps to get to sobriety, as intensifying life experiences threaten to push them over the edge and away from one another.
