Through The Night

In this romantic drama, a chance meeting between two strangers brings a young punk named Jamie into an encounter with a beautiful but elusive kindred spirit named Fiona who shares her same feelings of loneliness and disillusionment, sparking an intense connection between the two girls in one brief but life changing night where Jamie reaches out for love even as she realizes that she will probably never see Fiona again. But in a world of chance encounters and missed connections, sometimes all you get is one night.

Directed by Amy Reedy, Through The Night leans on a strong ensemble — Hilary Anderson, Sydney Stephenson — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2012.
