Magic Hour

Directed by Jacqueline Christy
2025
94 mins

Harriet, a once-promising filmmaker, is stuck in the suburbs of New Jersey. Alienated from her cheating husband and spurned by her teenage daughter, she secretly enrolls in film school. She leads a double life and loves the grueling yet exhilarating world of student filmmaking. But, when she gets fired off her own film and found out by her daughter, Harriet must decide if her life’s ambition is pure folly or a dream worth saving.

Starring a wonderful Miriam Shor (Younger) in a performance that‘ll make you fall in love with her, Magic Hour is a feel-good film about how it’s never too late to chase your dreams.
