A Good Person (2023)



Released March 24th in the US.
Filmed entirely in New Jersey.
The story: Allison has a great life...
She is about to be married to Nathan, the love of her life.
The day after their engagement party, Allison is en route to try on wedding dresses with soon-to-be sister-in-law Molly and her husband Jesse.
But things do not go as planned.
The next thing Allison knows is waking up in the hospital.
Then she learns the grim reality. 
Fast forward one year.
Allison is now addicted to painkillers. She sits home day and night, alone, wallowing in her pain and sorrow.
She has broken all ties with Nathan and lives a very self-destructive life.
When she has exhausted all her efforts to get that next high, she decides to go to a meeting.
There she is surprised to find Daniel, the man who would have been her father-in-law.
Feeling extremely guilty and unable to deal, Allison runs, even though Daniel tries coaxing her to stay.
After some time, she returns, only after dragging herself through the mud some more and Daniel befriends her.
Even though Daniel is also struggling with what happened, he takes into consideration that Allison needs help from supportive friends.
