Stealing Home
Stealing hearts, stealing laughs, stealing memories
Directed by William Porter, Steven Kampmann
Produced by The Mount Company, Warner Bros. Pictures
A melancholic, memory-soaked meditation on loss and first love, anchored by nostalgic reflection on formative relationships and the passage of time.
Billy Wyatt, a former high school and minor-league baseball player, receives a telephone call from his mother revealing that his former child-sitter, and later in his teens, his first love, Katie Chandler, has died. Wyatt returns home to deal with this tragedy, reminiscing over his childhood growing up with his father, Katie, and best friend Alan Appleby.
