At seventeen, believing the only thing life had to offer her was violence and pain, Lonnie embarked on a life-altering road trip. Twenty five years later she set out on a new journey: to revisit old friends, heal old wounds, and document the beauty of the community that saved her. BOX OF RAIN is a feature documentary film about a road trip, acceptance, and the healing power of music.
