Shree Crooks
Scandinavia, 1846. A poor young girl forced to sell matchsticks desperately lights one match to survive the winter night. She is drawn into a dream world where the flames of fire give her hope for a better life, while the cold creeps closer. Based on H.C. Andersen's short story.
A young girl is raised in a dysfunctional family constantly on the run from the FBI. Living in poverty, she comes of age guided by her drunkard, ingenious father who distracts her with magical stories to keep her mind off the family's dire state, and her selfish, nonconformist mother who has no intention of raising a family, along with her younger brother and sister, and her other older sister. Together, they fend for each other as they mature in an unorthodox journey that is their family life.
A father living in the forests of the Pacific Northwest with his six young kids tries to assimilate back into society.
Two still single career women in their late 30's seek refuge in each other with their biological clocks ticking and life choices in question. Feeling ostracized by their successful, married-with-kids friends, and the mounting pressure of societal norms telling them they "should" have it all by now, they brazenly chase the fairytale, while navigating their complicated lives in L.A.
