• ABOUT •
THE STORY
Over an elaborate dinner, a beautiful young woman with a seemingly perfect life (RILEY) shatters her younger sister (QUINN) by revealing her intention to commit suicide by the evening’s end.
When Riley refuses to call off her plans, or even explain her reasons, Quinn turns the tables on her by threatening to do the unthinkable, leading to a dramatic and shocking ending.
FROM THE WRITER/DIRECTOR
DAWN FIELDS
Writer/Director/Producer
“Many years ago I was forever impacted by a movie called ‘night, Mother starring Sissy Spacek and Anne Bancroft (who I had the pleasure of working with years later).
If you’ve seen the movie, or the Pulitzer Prize-winning stage play it was based on, you know how disturbingly it ends. I’ve always wanted to tell a modern version of this compelling concept, but with a unique perspective and a different conclusion. And now is that time.
The writing and development of this film has sparked so many deep and compelling conversations, many of which are reflected in the script. I hope this story is impactful and opens many more much-needed discussions.” — Dawn Fields
Dawn Fields is a Los Angeles-based filmmaker, with over 25 years of experience working as a producer, writer, director and editor who has won over 30 awards, most notably for her powerful Alzheimer’s film Fragile Storm (starring Lance Henriksen). With a background in acquisitions, development, production, and distribution, she has worked for such companies as LucasFilm, Twentieth Century Fox, Tri-Star, ABC, NBC, Aaron Spelling Productions and Morgan Creek. Fragile Storm can be found on most major streaming platforms as part of The Edge of Her Mind Anthology (it’s the third short film in the collection).
