ABOUT:

The story of The Last Lullaby attempts to bring the audience into this Luke’s world, imbued with parental violence, mystical believes, and nature’s extreme beauty. As we follow the journey of a 12 year-old kid who is walking down the tumultuous path that leads from childhood to adulthood, the audience is faced with a dilemma: whether to believe in extraordinary events or to contemplate the sublime struggle of a kid who uses his imagination as a remedy to his suffering.
