Synopsis
Kelly & Cal (2014) is a comedy-drama you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Jen McGowan in her feature film debut.
Kelly was in a punk band. Now she's a new mom in a quiet suburb, surrounded by people who seem genuinely pleased by routines she finds unbearable. Cal is seventeen and stuck in a wheelchair after an accident, equally fed up with the life he's been handed. They meet across a fence and form the sort of blunt, unlikely friendship neither of them could explain to anyone around them. Juliette Lewis plays Kelly — sharp and chaotic in exactly the right measure. Jonny Weston plays Cal without a trace of the inspirational-disabled-kid formula. Josh Hopkins and Cybill Shepherd round out the cast.
McGowan refuses sentimentality at every turn. Two people who are bad at pretending everything is fine — and what that honesty costs both of them. Watch Kelly & Cal (2014) on iFILM.
