Finding Joy
A struggling writer rediscovers himself, his offbeat family, and what it means to be happy when he meets Joy – a spirited, possibly-dying young woman who asks him to write her obituary.
My takeA heartwarming film about rediscovery and unexpected connection. When a burnt-out writer meets an electrifying woman facing her mortality, they spark something real—the kind of story that reminds you why human connection matters. Perfect for when you need to believe in second chances.
