NEVER EAT ALONE

Joan has a dream and shares a secret with her granddaughter: before she met her grandfather, she loved a man with whom she starred in a TV show in the 50s. He almost followed her to the altar. Joan wants Audrey to find this man. Written by the two actresses, Joan Benac and Deragh Campbell, and filmmaker Sofia Bohdanowicz, Never Eat Alone is a film that navigates the spaces of loneliness and togetherness between the young and old in a setting that is peppered with fiction and documentary. It is also the first of a series of films in which the character, Audrey Benac, becomes an archival detective who dives into the past to uncover the hidden stories of forgotten artists.
