THE STORY

LOGLINE

“Former child star Vince Warren, on the brink of a career comeback, spirals as his fiancée Sydney’s rising fame forces him to confront the trauma that haunts him, face his addictions and discover a sense of self.”

Once a household name, Vince now fights to reclaim his craft while confronting jealousy, hallucinations, and a past he cannot escape.  As Sydney’s breakthrough role propels her into the spotlight, love turns combustible.

UNREST charts a modern love story where ambition and addiction collide, forcing both to choose between the relationship and the roles they were born to play.

Set in New York City – with a tone and style of “A Star is Born” and “Black Swan” –  and against the backdrop of an unforgiving industry, the film explores the terrifying intersection of art and madness, questioning how much of ourselves we must lose to be seen by the world.
