Spoilers ahead
After Hazel turns 18, Dee’s ex-husband threatens to cut off child support unless Hazel agrees to treatment for her crippling agoraphobia. The pressure mounts to move Hazel toward a treatment center, so they embark on a van ride that Hazel finds daunting from the start. The journey is tense, with the two women clashing over Dee’s hard-living lifestyle and Hazel’s own neuroses, yet Hazel is reassured when her mother offers to accompany her. To accommodate Hazel’s fears, the treatment center allows her to travel in a box—a self-contained space that lets her isolate herself from others and the outside world.
