The Young Girl and the Monsoon centers around a fraught relationship between father and daughter.
Hank, a 39-year-old photo-journalist (Kinney), has agreed to look after his 13-year-old daughter, Constance (Muth), for several weeks while his ex-wife goes on a holiday with her new husband.
Suddenly Erin wants to marry Hank and have his children, but he can't cope, and drops her.
Just as Hank has a chance of winning a prestigious journalistic award, he finds his private life a little too much to handle.
She is going through the emotional swings of a growing adolescent and the scenes between Kinney and Muth as father and daughter are seen as the most impressive aspect of the film.
