Dreamtown

Hollywood in the early nineteen-fifties. A town full of energy, money, creativity and thousands of talented young people. Teenager Rosa Valdez lives with her filmstar mother in a luxurious pink marble house with a swimming pool shaped like a giant heart. Life for Rosa is good - too good to last. One day Rosa's mother finds that she can no longer get any work. Her name is on a blacklist of so called communists and their sympathizers. Overnight close friends and colleagues turn their backs on Rosa and her mother. Without money Rosa's world collapses around her and she sees what reality is like outside the Hollywood dream.
