Set against San Francisco’s vivid cultural landscape of the 1970s and 1980s, the film follows a father‑daughter bond as it moves from the city’s bohemian excess to the stark, heartbreaking reality of the AIDS crisis. It adapts Alysia Abbott’s bestselling memoir Fairyland: A Memoir of My Father, capturing both the era’s artistic energy and its painful loss.
