Overview
"TARA is a feature-length film designed for streaming platforms that tells the story of a young woman who will do anything to get back into the limelight. Set in the year 2010, this Coming-of-Age Comedy follows self-centered Tara, who has recently been kicked off a reality television show after committing a horrendous act. Forced to move back home with her sympathetic but overbearing stepmother, Tara sets her sights on making over a lonely, unwitting teenager in the hopes of becoming the "life coach" of a reality show that gives young people the opportunity to reinvent themselves. Throughout the teenager's transformation, the two of them form an unlikely friendship that jeopardizes Tara's chances at fame, and Tara discovers that figuring out what you want out of life can be just as complicated as achieving it." -- Abstract
