Painful Ties
Directed by Bobby Hardin Jr. • Screenplay by Allen McMorris
Painful Ties is an emotionally charged short film about the wounds we carry, the truths we bury, and the unexpected ways our past can find its way back to us.
After ongoing trouble at school and repeated conflicts begin pushing his life in the wrong direction, Derek Odom is ordered to attend therapy to confront the behavior threatening his future. Reluctant, defensive, and convinced the session will change nothing, Derek enters therapist Christopher Redman’s office with little intention of opening up. But as Christopher challenges Derek to confront what is driving his anger, the conversation takes on an unexpected emotional weight neither man seems fully prepared for.
