Ten-year-old Jo spends her days along the Shenandoah River with her best friend Selma: fishing, scrapping for metal, surviving. But when her abusive junkie step-dad dies, Jo decides, Selma in tow, to dump the body, steal the car, and set off across the country in search of her real dad, a legendary folk singer in Los Angeles.

Set against the rustic backdrop of the Colorado Western Slope, Evergreen is the story of an interfaith couple's tumultuous relationship over a pivotal Christmas weekend. Paul, a contemporary Catholic, plans to propose, while his pragmatic girlfriend, Gena, hopes to finally take their celibate relationship to the next level. When expectations clash, the two set aside prior notions and agree to a brutally honest weekend of "question-and-answer," unearthing long-buried secrets from relationships past.
