Trailer & Synopsis
How do we shed old stories about how love should be and write new ones?
Described as a fractured fairytale of resilience and grace, LIFE COULD BE A DREAM follows Sarah, a forty-year-old woman standing at the threshold of a life she’s never lived. As she and her teenage son Otis navigate their way toward freedom, they must confront both external threats and the mythology Sarah has held about rescue and relationships. Finding temporary sanctuary in a luxurious estate she’s been tasked with selling, Sarah begins to imagine a different future one defined by choice rather than fear. This is a story about breaking cycles: a mother trying to model strength for her son while learning, herself, what it means to let go and begin again. At its heart lies the fierce and fragile bond between Sarah and Otis as they redefine their relationship and discover what liberation can look like.
LIFE COULD BE A DREAM reveals the hidden struggles many face behind closed doors and searches for a path forward. Director Jasmin Tarasin brings an intimate understanding to this story of freedom and family, examining how cycles can be broken, allowing the next generation to choose differently.
A donation of $1 from every ticket sold across the Palace Cinemas circuit during the release of the film will be made to The Man Cave, an Australian preventative mental health charity for boys and young men.
