Charla

CHARLA begins with the central character's death, then flashes back to a year earlier where we first meet this wonderful, witty, talented, former saloon singer named Charla. We witness the decimating relationship Charla has with her mother, in contrast to the warm, nurturing alliance she enjoys with her teenage son. We also meet Aaron, the last man in her life, who tries to save this doomed fragile lady from her own self-destructive nature. This original screenplay is a comic/tragic love story, inspired by the life of actress Charla Doherty.
