“The toughest act to follow was their dreams.”

Drama

Sadie looks up to her older sister Georgia, a successful folk singer. Unfortunately it is this very obsession — coupled with her self-destructive tendencies and rampant drug abuse — that keeps her spiraling down the drain.

VIBE

A raw, introspective dive into the complex dynamics of sisterhood and the crushing weight of unfulfilled artistic ambition. It feels like a smoky, dimly lit bar where every note aches with regret and the quiet desperation of dreams just out of reach.
