The People We Keep is a tender coming-of-age story that begins in 1994 and spans to 1997, following a 16-year-old girl named April Sawicki who has been living alone in a motorhome ever since her father abandoned her to live with a woman named Irene and her young son. After a blowout with her father, April leaves her small town behind and sets off on a journey of survival, meeting friends through her passion for music that changes the trajectory of her life. April is a character you want to root for, even when the decisions she makes reveal their consequences. It's both a heart-wrenching and heartwarming story of found family, belonging, and a brilliant reminder that home isn't a place, but the people you keep close to you.
