At its core, the film explores themes of love, freedom, and self-discovery against the backdrop of 1970s counterculture. As the boy's single mother, Dorothea, played by Annette Bening, navigates the challenges of raising a son on her own, she enlists the help of Abbie, a free-spirited artist played by Greta Gerwig, and Julie, a precocious teenage girl portrayed by Elle Fanning. Together, these strong-willed and independent women provide a unique blend of guidance and support.
