Mitchell spends his days searching through garage sales, scrap yards, and forgotten places, looking for objects most people no longer see. Shelly watches, listens, and slowly begins to understand that the things people leave behind often carry stories far larger than their size.
As one summer unfolds in a small upstate New York town, a friendship deepens, family histories surface, and a few unexpected discoveries begin to reshape how Mitchell and Shelly see the world-and themselves.
JUNK is a coming-of-age story about memory, loss, and the quiet power of paying attention. It is about the objects we save, the ones we discard, and how sometimes the most ordinary finds can change the course of a life.
