All film heroes need a problem. You don't have a story until the trouble begins. We selected these shorts because of their high quality and because we loved the originality of how each hero dealt with their crisis. Some are surprising, some delightful and some will break your heart.

Description

Pearl Simmons (Michelle Hurst, "Orange is the New Black"), an aging jazz singer in brownstone Brooklyn, fights the early stages of Alzheimer's. While she presents a strong front to her daughter Cynthia (Melanie Nicholls-King, "The Wire"), her sense of place and time begin to slip, and her memories of her days as a jazz singer in 1970's New York clash with the present. Cynthia, struggling to care for her mother, considers an offer to sell the family's home.
