When Velveteen Vargas, an 11-year-old Fresh Air Fund kid from Brooklyn, comes to stay with a couple in upstate New York, what begins as a 2-week visit blossoms into something much more significant. Soon Velvet finds herself torn between her hosts - Ginger, a failed artist and shakily recovered alcoholic and Paul, a college professor - and her own tormented mother.
