Program Note
Increasingly dissociated from lazy, drunken hangouts and perfunctory
hookups with her immature peers, bored, aimless seventeen-year-old Lea
is intrigued by an older-man, Tom, after he rescues her following a reluctant
dine-and-dash at a local diner. Initially wary (he’s twice her age!), Lea
finds that Tom’s focused attention fills a deep, unspoken need, and Lea’s
investment in their relationship quickly supplants her already tenuous ties
to her distracted single mom and loose-knit friend group. But Tom’s initial
patience and willingness to let Lea take the lead gradually gives way to a
dynamic in which his awareness of the power he holds is distressingly clear.
Palm Trees and Power Lines, the first feature by Jamie Dack, is based on her
2018 short film of the same name. Dack won the award for directing, editing
and screenwriting in the U.S Dramatic Competition at Sundance.
