Line of Friendship

Teen Romantic Drama Short Film • 2010

When the girl he loves returns to their small town and won't give him the time of day, a heartbroken teenager takes a dangerous gamble: becoming her anonymous secret admirer.

About the Film

Jared McKenzie hasn't stopped thinking about Mikayla Roberts since she left for the city. When she unexpectedly returns to their small South Australian town, he sees his chance, but Mikayla won't let him in, and rival Cameron Ford is circling.

What begins as a romantic gambit spirals into something far more complicated.
