Veteran smokejumper Jack Elliot fells trees on a steep mountain slope high in the Montana wilderness when his phone rings. His estranged ex-wife can't pick up their teenage daughter from camp in Wyoming. Jack hasn't seen her in four years, ever since he lost his entire unit to a rogue wildfire. Over the next five days, we watch Jack and his daughter battle as they ride across the wild Montana landscape and sleep beneath her bounty of stars. Watching his baby grow into a woman, and seeing her hero shrink to a man, a battle that starts off face-to-face, slowly turns back-to-back.

Common Sense Says
Quiet drama about recovery, forgiveness has some language.
What Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that Two Yellow Lines is a drama about a man and his 13-year-old daughter getting to know each other again on a motorcycle trip after not seeing each other for four years. The only violence is from two men menacing a young teen who's only wearing underclothes, and a fistfight with punching and choking, but no blood or gore. Strong language includes "s--t" and "a--hole." Adults drink beer and wine in moderation, usually with meals, and drinking whiskey is mentioned. Issues explored include anxiety, recovery from trauma, parental absence, dealing with anger and resentment. Flashbacks show a scary wildfire event suffered by a smokejumper involving loss of life.
