Wonderstruck

Meet Ethan, a recently divorced architect struggles to move on to the next chapter of his life. However, instead of adjusting to a new sense of normalcy, he stumbles into Ally, an eccentric high school art teacher who twists his world in unexpected directions. From their first encounter, Ally’s strange effect evokes Ethan’s interest as she challenges his sense of curiosity and adventure in the most uncharacteristically romantic ways. Ethan questions whether to follow this new and unusual woman’s eager spirit or to remain alone in his familiar routine.


Ethan has no idea what to make of Ally, but she convinces him to tag along during Christmas which sparks an interest between them. As the relationship grows, questions arise about their future, and the trust between them wavers. Ethan struggles with what his mind is telling him and what his heart feels, and what he knows he must do when Ally is offered the opportunity of a lifetime. Ethan must discover how to grasp the realities of their situation while deciding how to defy them at all costs.


Set within the backdrop of winter time New York City, Wonderstruck illustrates some of the many internal obstacles often contemplated when faced with two of life’s unexpected adversities: love and heartbreak. You’ll discover how the best things happen in life when you need them most, and the worst things will happen when you want them the least. It encompasses a different journey than a typical romantic story, with this one being told from a contrasting male perspective as well as entailing realistic conflicts that take place every day between flawed characters.
