Mouse begins with two high-school friends facing senior year, but its story reaches beyond their friendship: after a tragedy, Minnie forms a complicated connection with Callie’s mother. Both are looking for companionship or solace as they contend with grief.
The film is set in 2002 in North Little Rock, Arkansas. Callie, a singer and performer with local prominence, and Minnie are preparing for their senior year. Minnie has long been less socially assured and lived within Callie’s protective orbit.
A tragic accident upends the friendship. Minnie, left searching for direction and companionship, develops a complicated relationship with Callie’s mother, who is also grieving. That shift makes the story about more than two teenagers growing up: it brings a parent and a young person into a shared, uneasy search for solace.
