Crybaby

2026 · 12 min

A small, wry slice of awkwardness and quiet dread, watching someone squirm rather than face the people who knew her.

Directed by
Lauren O'Leary
Genres
Comedy, Drama
Overview
Home for the first time in years, Hannah is dragged to do the big Christmas shop at Tesco. Cue: abject horror. The last thing she wants is to bump into everyone she went to school with and confirm her fear that she's a failure. Simple: she just wont get out of the car.
