Coast

Abby is a sixteen-year-old girl living in a small farming town on the coast. Restless and eager for something beyond the life she knows, she becomes involved with the singer of a rock band passing through on tour. Her feelings for him force a choice between leaving her family and friends behind and staying where she comes from, while her friendships with other young women and her love of music shape how she sees that decision.

The drama runs 96 minutes and was released in April 2022. It was directed by Derek Schweickart and Jessica Hester from a screenplay by Cindy Kitagawa, and produced by Big Vision Empty Wallet. Fatima Ptacek plays Abby, with Melissa Leo as Olivia, Ciara Bravo as Cassie, Cristela Alonzo as Debora Avila, and Mia Rose Frampton and Mia Xitlali rounding out the main cast.

Audience response has been modest: on IMDb the film holds a rating of 4.6 out of 10 from 229 votes, which suggests a limited and largely unenthusiastic viewership rather than a broad following.
