Cosmic Bowling

2017 · Director · Premiered on Short of the Week

Taryn, Mollie, and Bird planned to go to cosmic bowling at the local bowling alley with one goal: finding the cute new boy in town. When cosmic bowling is tragically canceled, they are set on an all-night odyssey in search of that elusive perfect Friday night. Written as a love story to female friendship, Cosmic Bowling is a film about the high school experience, in the tradition of Richard Linklater’s Dazed and Confused and George Lucas’s American Graffiti, through the female lens.
