Tuesday

Synopsis

When death comes calling for terminally ill teenager Tuesday, it sparks a chain of events that leads mother and daughter on a wild, strange adventure. Julia Louis-Dreyfus shines as a parent contemplating the unimaginable. She’s perfectly matched by Lola Petticrew’s sparky, heartfelt performance as Tuesday. Together, they create a unique portrait of familial life that’s entirely fantastical, yet deeply rooted in lived emotions. (LFF Brochure)
