Director: Victoria Napolitano
Plot Summary:
In her acting debut, award-winning director Victoria Napolitano presents a visceral musical drama about the fragility of life and the unyielding power of the human spirit. The story follows a successful songwriter whose world is shattered by a catastrophic car accident in November 2022. Left with a twisted spine, knee injuries, and a dismantled career, she faces a harrowing 2.5-year journey of physical and mental reconstruction.
But the recovery was not just physical. During her most painful months, Victoria began to manifest her sanctuary. Over the course of a year, she painstakingly designed and built 'The Lounge'—a real-world location that now serves as the film’s stunning set design.
The Lounge:
After Dark is the result of that labor; it is a transcendent space free of judgment and criticism, where real-life trauma is processed through explosive movement and original music. As she purges the toxicity from her environment within the walls she built herself, she proves that the end of one life is simply the prelude to a new existence she never dared to imagine.
