A group of foster siblings in Ft. Wayne, Indiana, slip into the night with trash bags, what little they own, and a trusty copy of The Boxcar Children. Having learned they were soon to be separated, they decided to take matters into their own hands. Ren and her three foster siblings walk through the night, braving highways and passing cars, before crossing into the woods to sleep. In the morning, they discover an empty treehouse nearby. But empty doesn’t always equal abandoned, and before long, the owners of the mysterious treehouse return and everyone’s lives are changed. Boxcar Kids is a nostalgic nod to the 90s: to pre-teen dreams of freedom, hot and sweaty summers, and the perils of growing up.
