Feature Film: "Heartstorm" by Jerry White Jr. San Diego Premiere A young woman goes on a cathartic journey through memory and imagination inspired by the performances at an open mic. A self-love story of discovery, acceptance, and the transformative power of art. Lucia is a closet poet, so when she attends an open mic for the first time and is faced with signing up to perform, she declines. She opts instead to just take it all in as an audience member and throughout the course of the evening her memory is triggered by the performances. Lucia is launched into a series of sometimes humorous, sometimes heartbreaking flashbacks in which she is forced to examine her views on family, love, and queerness.
