John Cho is Max, a single father raising his 16-year-old daughter Wallace (Mia Isaac), a child from his failed marriage. When Max finds out he has a rare bone tumor, he takes Wallace on a road trip to meet her estranged mother. Winding from California to New Orleans, the pair face off during a series of incidences, including Wallace staying out all night with strangers in Texas. Despite all the travails, they begin to come to terms with the truth, including that mother reluctant to meet her daughter. It all ends up in a surprising conclusion, and changes all lives along the way.

”Don’t Make Me Go” will stream on Prime Video beginning July 15th. Featuring Mia Isaac, John Cho, Kaya Scodelario, Jermaine Clement and Josh Thompson. Written by Vera Herbert. Directed by Hannah Marks. Rated “PG-13”
