Project Detail

One Little Step

Synopsis

With a spirit full of music and heart aching to love, a young woman finds enchantment amongst the tarnished glitter of a seaside town. Charlie can't help dreaming. In her head, she has a life filled with sunshine and song. The truth - a seaside summer job at a crazy golf course - is dreary and grey in comparison.

Then there's a boy, Jake, a sculptor, crafting Charlie's castles in the air from the sand on the beach.

But will she take a chance, take one little step, and open herself up to love?

Filmed in Great Yarmouth, home of sun, sea and sand sculpting, One Little Step is a magical musical to melt your heart.
