As a young woman falls under the sway of a charismatic internet guru advocating for going “no contact” with toxic parents, she’s torn between helping her mom or cutting her off completely.
The short is a proof-of-concept for a feature. The feature script was a semi-finalist for Nantucket Film Festival’s Tony Cox Screenwriting Competition, 2025.
