Curfew
Watch TrailerRichie, submerged in the depths of his own despair, receives an unexpected call from his long-estranged sister. Her simple request—to watch his nine-year-old niece, Sophia, for a few hours—becomes a lifeline in the murky waters of his depression. Those few hours spent with the precocious girl in the twilight streets of New York transform into a fragile journey. A trip to a bowling alley, conversations about life and death, an exchange of naive yet sincere revelations—all of it slowly pulls Richie back to the shore of reality, making him feel a forgotten sense of responsibility and connection.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Shawn Christensen's short film masterpiece is a virtuoso study of the human soul's fragility. Every frame, from a grim bathroom to the neon glow of a bowling alley, breathes with authentic, unvarnished pain and hope.
What lingers after the credits is not sentimental sugarcoating, but a raw, piercing portrait of salvation found in the most unexpected place. It leaves a quiet, persistent conviction that light can crack even the thickest darkness. — MovieFinder Editorial
