First Dances! What Could Possibly Go Wrong? (2020)
A film I created my senior year of high school loosely based on my experience growing up in a traditional family. Leila is thrilled when she is asked by her crush, Andrew, to go to Homecoming. Her mother, however, growing up with traditional views, opposes the idea. Leila decides to disobey her mother's wishes and go to the dance, but things don't go as she had hoped.
