Sweet and Funny Trailer for Heartfelt Father/Daughter Indie Dramedy GHOSTLIGHT

A sweet and funny trailer has been released for the indie drama Ghostlight, a coming of age story which follows a father and daughter as they push through a difficult time in their lives and look to find meaning both in and out of their relationship.

The film stars Keith Kupferer, Katherine Mallen Kupferer, Tara Mallen, and Dolly De Leon, and it is co-directed by filmmakers Alex Thompson (Saint Frances, Rounding) and Kelly O’Sullivan, co-directing their first feature film together after a few other short films previously. The screenplay is written by Kelly O’Sullivan.

The synopsis reads: “When melancholic construction worker Dan finds himself drifting from his wife & daughter, he discovers community and purpose in a local theater’s production of Romeo and Juliet. As the drama onstage starts to mirror his own life, he and his family are forced to confront a personal loss.”

This looks like a lovely film. Ghostlight premiered at Sundance film festival earlier this year, and had a warm reception. Check out the trailer below, and watch Ghostlight in select US theatres on June 14th.
