FILM: Life Could Be A Dream (Feature film)
A feature-length drama about self-liberation, love and the courage to break free from the illusions of a fairy-tale middle-class life. At forty, Sarah is forced to confront a painful truth: she's trapped in a marriage held together by the faded illusions of love. As her teenage son begins to navigate the turbulence of adolescence, the dangers of staying emotionally and psychologically become impossible to ignore.
Seeking refuge, Sara relocates to a long-abandoned estate, a place suspended between past and present. Surrounded by the remnants of other people’s lives and armed only with her lifelong obsession with Pride and Prejudice, she begins to imagine her own story.
