“A Love Song” tells a small, stirring tale with quiet grace. At an idyllic campground in the Colorado Mountains, Faye camps in her trailer. She spends her days listening to birds, catching crawfish from the lake, and scanning her old radio for a station. But most of all, Faye is waiting for Lito, a childhood sweetheart she hasn’t seen in decades. “A Love Song” marks the feature debut of writer-director Max Walker-Silverman.

“A Love Song” is rated PG and is showing through Sept. 1.
