Flora and Son
Talent is relative.
Directed by John Carney
Produced by Likely Story, FilmNation Entertainment
A warm, music-centered family drama about a single mother and rebellious son finding connection and redemption through songwriting and guitar instruction.
Single mom Flora is at a loss about what to do with her rebellious teenage son, Max. Her efforts to keep him out of trouble lead to a beat-up acoustic guitar, a washed-up LA musician, and harmony for this frayed Dublin family.
