À propos de ce film

Written by and starring a 14-year-old girl, this film is a living, breathing snapshot of how it feels to be a teen in today's disconnected world. Purgatory House begins where most stories end, as it chronicles the after-life journey of a lonely teen who abandons her life of turmoil and drug addiction, only to find herself caught somewhere between heaven and hell. There, she must choose whether she will accept her drab existence or finally discover within herself the power to change. Told in non-linear form, this quirky coming-of-age film stars teen writer Celeste Davis, Johnny Pacar ("Make it or Break it", "Flight 29 Down") Jim Hanks (Baby Geniuses), and Devin Witt, and features music by Natalie Merchant, Blue Oyster Cult, Violent Femmes, Grammy-nominated Eric Bazilian, and other top recording artists. Winner of 10 Film Festival Awards and 2-time PRISM Award™ Nominee, this powerful debut from director Cindy Baer has been hailed by Film Threat as "a charming, touching, clever and all-around brilliantly crafted film."

Notes et avis

I love this movie. Its a b flick, but i feel hasnt had nearly enough publicity. Its corny but has a good message and the 14 year old girl that wrote it did a really good job. My mom got this movie a long time ago and i didnt wanna watch it but actually liked the cheesiness of it a lot but i ❤ b flix. 😊✌

I rented this film last week and I am telling EVERYONE I know about it! Original, thought-provoking and just plain excellent. I could relate on so many different levels.

This is something you must see! I was pleased to see this on release after I saw it at a film festival screening. It would be such a shame if it had gone the way of many films and disappeared. I cant wait to watch it again!
