LOGLINE

A single mother grapples with the chaos of everyday life, only to face an unimaginable reality when mysterious extraterrestrial events unfold, forcing her to confront faith, family, and survival.


SYNOPSIS

Grace, an overworked single mother in her early 30s, struggles to balance the weight of her responsibilities. Haunted by the memory of her late husband, Will Sr., who died while serving in the military, she finds solace in the video messages he left behind. Her precocious 8-year-old son, Will Jr., obsessed with outer space and aliens, constantly reminds her of her late husband’s absence. Meanwhile, Grace’s deeply religious mother, Gloria, persistently pushes her to reconnect with faith.

DIRECTOR

With a robust background in the film industry and a creative edge in apparel design, my journey has led me to simultaneously embrace the roles of Head of TV and Film at Mixed Media and Owner at For The Crew Clothing. At Temple University, I honed skills that now fuel my dual passions.

My work has been recognized in publications such as Variety and Screen Daily, underscoring my commitment to storytelling and fashion. Our team's latest project, "Peripheral," has already garnered attention for its unique narrative and production quality, reflecting our dedication to excellence and innovation in the field.
