September, All Over

Directed by Kali Kahn


It’s September 2017. Hurricane Irma has just passed through Miami, causing widespread power outages for over a week. 23-year-old Talia has been cooped up with her widowed father, clinging desperately to her sanity as the heat and unspoken grief weigh heavy between them. One night, she seeks respite in a nearby condominium pool, where she meets Charlie, a charming resident in the building who’s 42 going on 25. She holes up in his apartment for two sweltering, avoidant days until their romantic charade inevitably comes crumbling down, and she’s forced to return home and contend with her mother’s absence.
