Lemonade Blessing Screenings at Edina 4

Synopsis

"Filmmakers in attendance! Q&A to follow screening! John (Jake Ryan) has been the perfect boy for his devout mom, Mary (Jeanine Serralles), since he left the womb. Freshly tossed into a private Catholic high school by his mother, he falls head over heels for a devious young girl named Lilith (Skye Alyssa Friedman), a rebel with a hatred of her strict religious upbringing. She’s ready to push his morals and faith to the brink with a series of uncomfortable actions and increasingly sacrilegious dares, all in the name of her love. Chris Merola tackles the suppressed ideals of young people taking part in organized religion with propulsive comedic and dramatic affect. The raunchy and playful piece unearths an R-rated investigation into the romantic and comedic trials of puberty and the complex pressures facing American youth today.
