17-year-old Carly lives with her deadbeat mom and dreams of a different life, escaping her reality through drugs and unrealistic fantasies of making it as a rock star. She spends most of her time at her best friend Laura’s house. When Laura’s young, handsome father Wayne re-enters her life, Carly bears witness to what a ‘good man’ is for the first time; Wayne is recently sober, keeps a nice home, and seems to care for his daughter. Exploring her newly discovered sexuality, Carly sets her sights on Wayne, sending their fragile lives into a permanent spiral. Night Blooms was selected to open the 2021 SJIWFF |
