A Song For Imogene
Erika Arlee
A positive pregnancy test motivates Cheyenne to leave her abusive boyfriend, fleeing to her childhood home. But the needs of her dying alcoholic mother and estranged sister threaten to suffocate her dreams of escape. A Song for Imogene is a beautifully empathetic story without condescending Southern caricatures, showing complex women trying to climb out of crippling generational poverty, mend family wounds, and keep some dreams for themselves. — Tara Hulen, Screening Committee
