After the unexpected death of their eccentric playwright father, a pair of sisters find out that the mother they thought was dead is alive and starring on a soap opera in this unconventional, expectation-defying dramedy by co-writer/director/star Hannah Pearl Utt (who plays the more grounded, sensible sister Rachel).
Blending over-the-top comedic moments with a nuanced and thoughtful depiction of Rachel’s journey of self-discovery, BEFORE YOU KNOW IT is a wonderfully unique, witty debut from an exciting new filmmaking voice.
“A strong debut that pushes the boundaries of what movies made from the female gaze can mean to audiences of all kinds.” – The Hollywood Reporter
