Book-Ends: The movie begins and ends in Empire with Fern going through very similar motions. The difference is that at the end, she gives up all of her belongings that remained in the storage shed.

Audience Surrogate: Fern serves this role, as her travels and lessons about the nomadic lifestyle give the viewer access to the same sights and stories as experienced through her eyes.

As Himself: Bob Wells plays himself, and much of the cast is comprised of real-life nomads with the same names as their characters essentially doing the same.

Avoid the Dreaded G Rating: There's a brief scene with the lead character Fern relaxing in a river fully nude to earn the film its R rating. Aside from that one moment, there's practically nothing risqué about the film.
