SLEEPING KINGS

By Madi Phoenix

Mentored by Rosemary Myers

Jeremy lives in a desaturated world without direction. He wants to move out of his toxic living situation but he’s unemployed. One day he comes across a piece of red yarn... which leads him to June... who is trying to knit a scarf for her New Year’s resolution - trying being the key word. Be it fate or coincidence, (June would call it fate), Jeremy knows how to knit and June’s workplace is hiring!

Woven with a thread of folklore, magic realism film Sleeping Kings spans across a year in the life of these two unlikely friends as they find purpose together.

But can they hold onto hope when fate has other plans?

A captioned screening will be help on the 18th of April!
