Teenager Carl (Ted Heimerdinger) longed to leave the dirt poverty of Appalachian Ohio and his dysfunctional mixed family behind, but didn’t want to saddle his half-sister Jessica (Larue Hall) with their combustible parents. After the fateful night they acted on their mutual attraction, Carl ran from home--and returned five months later to try and deal with the consequences. Restored and rediscovered, this compelling neorealist indie also stars John Crawford, Marjorie Johnson. 82 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English; bonus shorts "Football as It Is Played Today" (1961), "How Swived" (1962), "Cheers" (1963); featurettes.
