Kesi (2020)

Twenty-Year-Old Kesi (Avalon Penrose) is traveling back home for her alcoholic Mother's funeral. She is accompanied by her closest companions, a group of stuffed animals in which she often expresses herself through. The stuffed animals all have different voices, personalities, and opinions on the situation. While many of her family members feel the weight of this unfortunate passing, Kesi is looking for the most appropriate way to honor her late Mother. She is clear of one thing: her Mom would want her to have fun. The Mother character (Shesanie) is the director's actual mother. She passed away from alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver in early 2018 and this film uses her likeness, personal details, possessions and actual ashes.
