To Leslie
Directed by Michael Morris
Produced by BCDF Pictures, Baral Waley Productions
A character-driven drama about addiction and redemption that balances the wreckage of a woman's choices with the possibility of rebuilding, grounded in regional specificity and melancholic introspection.
A West Texas single mother wins the lottery and squanders it just as fast, leaving behind a world of heartbreak. Years later, with her charm running out and nowhere to go, she fights to rebuild her life and find redemption.
