Saint Frances

After her decision to end and unwanted pregnancy, 34-year-old Bridget reluctantly becomes a nanny to the bright and boisterous Frances. Unexpectedly Bridget also forms a close bond with Frances's family. Frances' mothers, Maya and Annie, have just had another baby and need help caring for their energetic and fearless six-year-old, who is also a bit upset at being ousted by her little brother. Lead actress and screenwriter Kelly O'Sullivan was a nanny herself and always wanted to write about that job. At the same time, she wanted to address the lack of non-traumatic abortion stories in film. "Just the kind of authentic, heartfelt story our time needs, and the best performance by a child actress since The Florida Project." (CINAPSE)
