Defying Gravity

The film follows Cassandra, a mute runaway who finds refuge in a cemetery. Her story intertwines with that of Jorge, the cemetery caretaker, who is dedicated to restoring a classic '60 Cadillac hearse, and Shore, a homeless but charismatic young man who becomes intrigued by her. As events unfold, Jorge and Shore embark on a quest to find Cassandra after she goes missing, leading them to a roadside diner and an engaging cast of characters.

With a runtime of 90 minutes, Defying Gravity captures themes of life and death, encapsulated in its tagline about embracing death to embrace life. The film's unique premise and character dynamics may resonate with viewers who appreciate offbeat storytelling and emotional depth.

Collectors may find interest in the availability of the film on DVD and other formats. Its indie nature and exploration of unconventional themes make it a noteworthy entry in the genre of comedy-drama from the late 2000s.
