Summary

It’s the summer of 1994 and Emily’s dream of becoming an actor is about to come true, when she joins an avant-garde theatre production. Emily is immediately enchanted by the bohemian lives of her castmates, but the company, under the direction of the enigmatic Reinhardt, operates with its own strict unwritten rules. As the lines between artistic and personal relationships blur, Emily becomes trapped in the complex power dynamics within the group.

Cast Eric Johnson, Jess Salgueiro, Stefani Kimber
