Heartbreak on Murray Hill

This short film is set in 1950s New York and is based on a true story about the director's Grandma Bobby experiencing her first breakup at 11 years old. The audience witnesses Bobby facing a type of self-doubt she’s never had to contend with before as she experiences insecurity for the first time. All this is further compounded by uncertainty about her family’s future, as her parents’ marriage spirals closer and closer to disaster. Ultimately, Bobby finds the love and support she so sorely needs from the women in her family: her tough-love Catholic mother, Sheila, and her spunky little sister, Kathleen.
