Rose’s Turn
Written and Directed by
Kymberly Harris
A glamorous European couple working in LA invite a homeless woman for dinner, and learn that their idea of helping may not be as simple as it seems.
“Rose’s Turn is socially significant, original, and entertaining at the same time. In my opinion, her work shines, showing her to be a gifted actress and writer and director sure to accumulate great success.

What interests me are stories that intimately examine how we’re formed by our families and by society, and how that affects our ability to connect to each other.
