Puppy Love

The plot

Directed by Darren Heard

Beetle, the typical around the way kid, has a huge crush on his favorite R&B singer "Crystal". While listening to the radio, the DJ announces a contest that will get him up, close and personal with the singer but the only way to win the tickets is to call in. The problem is, his phone does not work. Beetle has to figure out a way to get to the love of his life in this coming of age drama about what is was like when you first experienced love. 

Director Statement

Have you ever been in Love? I'm not talking about the kind of Love that comes with duties and responsibilities. No work, no kids, no, I have to be somewhere in the morning, so we have to go home kind of Love. I'm talking about the type of Love that you go to sleep thinking about and wake up in the morning to pursue. It's your only reason for living. I'm talking about that real, pure, unjaded Love. That time when you had no idea what you were feeling Love. That's the only time when it was genuine, and we spend the rest of our lives trying to get it back again. Everybody experienced it at some point; I don't care who you are, where you come from, what your ethnicity or religious preference is. Those raw feelings inspired Puppy Love.
