Not Alone: Admissions

Directed by Aliyah Warford

Written by Madeline Ballentine, Ava Borskey, Ben Caplan, Madison Dies, Samuel Farr

In the third and final installment of Not Alone, a persistent mother tries to convince the principal of a prestigious middle school to admit her daughter, but his elitism and reluctance to engage with her goes beyond what might be expected. As the conversation grows increasingly uncomfortable, the mother is forced to confront a horrifying truth. Desperation becomes grief, and her "daughter" has become something else entirely.
