A young woman buys a bar in Brooklyn, New York. She is saddled with her teenage accomplice, with whom she has hopped from bar job to bar job all across the city. They are Liberty and Cameron.
She is measured, responsible and restrained. He is chaotic, tumultuous and out of control. They are fiercely loyal to one another, but in the face of pressure, their differences might get the better of them. With the risk of going under forever biting at their heels, they have to figure out how to make their plan sustainable, or else lose the bar and their one true attempt at living a life on their terms, and nobody else’s.
Mother of Exiles is a story about found family, platonic connection, and identity – or a lack thereof. It is a compassionate look at carving out agency against tough circumstances, and finding one’s true self against the noise.
