Show Must Go On

Short Film Non Union
Los Angeles
Synopsis:

Just as eviction, a breakup, and a rehearsal disaster push her to give up on her dream, her grandmother’s faith and their Bible study reignite her sense of purpose. On the night of the main show, Taylor sings from her pain and hope, transforming her performance into a leap of faith that opens the door to a new opportunity just when she thought her story was over.
