Drama

Once a successful Hollywood screenwriter, Stan is now a depressive alcoholic who spends most of his time mooching about his house whilst pouring out his troubles to his drinking partner. The only thing that keeps him going is his love for his teenage daughter, Charlotte, but she despises him, believing him to be responsible for the accident in which her mother died.

VIBE

A heavy, introspective drama that wallows in regret and the quiet desperation of a faded artist. It feels like a long, slow exhale, punctuated by moments of raw, familial pain and the lingering shadow of addiction.
