Camilla Belle (Father of Invention) looks for a new life in drama movie Open Road.

Belle plays Angie, a free-spirited Brazilian artist who leaves her past behind her to journey around the country in search of happiness. Along the way, she makes a connection with an aging drifter, a handsome cop and his sympathetic sister. As Angie learns to care for her new friends, she’s torn between the freedom of her nomadic life and the joy of becoming part of a community that loves her.

The coming-of-age film was directed by award-winning Brazilian director Marcio Garcia and also stars Andy Garcia (City Island), Juliette Lewis (Sympathy for Delicious), Colin Egglesfield (Something Borrowed) and John Savage (Bereavement).

Open Road wasn’t screened in theaters in the U.S., debuting on DVD and Blu-ray instead.
