Stand By Your Man

When Chris finds the courage to be the person on the outside that matches the inside, then Dorrie might also be able to find peace.

Set in a slightly surreal landscape, Chrissie lives with her addicted mother, who is supplied by her manipulative uncle, the man they depend on since her father died when she was young. Chrissie decides to take charge of her destiny, refusing to end up in the same relationship with her boyfriend. Leaving the room as Chrissie, Chris returns to claim not only his place but also to encourage his Mother to 'stand by her man' as he is committed to do.
