Anywhere, U.S.A. is a 2008 feature film directed by Chusy Haney-Jardine and starring mostly non-professional actors. The film is told in three parts: Penance, Loss, and Ignorance, with each story obliquely related to the next. Anywhere, U.S.A premiered in dramatic competition at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival where it won the "Special Jury Prize for Spirit of Independence".

Plot

His first feature film, Chusy had originally envisioned his movie as twenty different stories. Of those twenty, four stories were shot in their entirety, and two stories were started but never finished. The fourth story, tentatively titled "Holes," was excluded from the final cut to avoid an extended runtime and to ensure by implication its chance to compete in the Sundance Film Festival.
