I'm Fine (Thanks For Asking) is an inspiring, exhilarating and poignant drama which won Special Jury recognition at SXSW Film Festival about the experience of homelessness and keeping up appearances on the breadline.
Danny (Kelley Kali), a recently widowed hairdresser, and her 8-year-old daughter Wes (Wesley Moss) are homeless. Shielding Wes from the truth, Danny pitches a tent and convinces Wes that it’s a fun camping trip.
As Danny works to find permanent housing, Wes grows increasingly tired of weeks in the heat, so Danny promises her that they will go home by the end of the day. Under mounting pressure, and with roller skates as her only means of transportation, she has to somehow manage to get the money she needs in order to keep her promise to her daughter.
