Welcome to the Rileys
Directed by Jake Scott
Produced by Destination Films, Samuel Goldwyn Films
A somber, intimate character study about grief and redemption, following a grieving man's tentative bond with a vulnerable teenager in New Orleans.
Years after their teenage daughter’s death, Lois and Doug Riley, an upstanding Indiana couple, are frozen by estranging grief. Doug escapes to New Orleans on a business trip. Compelled by urgencies he doesn’t understand, he insinuates himself into the life of an underage hooker, becoming her platonic guardian.
