PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Davina (Natalia Dyer) is an imaginative and strong-willed teenage girl who often escapes into a beautifully twisted fantasy life. Having grown up quickly as the sole caretaker of her disabled mother, she looks for salvation in a new relationship with Sterling (Peter Vack), an older boy. And while she's swept into an electrifying whirlwind of romance and adventure, the enchantment of her new relationship quickly fades when his volatile side begins to emerge. I BELIEVE IN UNICORNS takes audiences on a road trip through the stunning and complex landscape of troubled young love, called "one of the most authentic and down-to-earth coming-of-age stories I've seen in cinema[2]"

From Student Academy Award nominated director Leah Meyerhoff (Twitch), Oscar® nominated producer Heather Rae (Frozen River), and Emmy Award winning executive producer Allison Anders (Gas Food Lodging), I BELIEVE IN UNICORNS stars emerging talents Natalia Dyer, Peter Vack (Mozart in the Jungle), Julia Garner (Sin City 2), Amy Seimetz (Upstream Color) and the director's mother Toni Meyerhoff. "Dyer and Vack are dynamite young actors on the verge of major career breakthroughs", says the Huffington Post.
