Shine A Light

All Ellie Bloom ever wanted in her whole life was to be an actress. But after her parents passed away time got the best of her. Stuck in a good paying but unfulfilling job at the bank, Ellie avoided memories of the past and kept saving to follow her dreams of acting. One night as she prepares dinner for a date a small mishap sends the apartment up in flames. Luckily the fire department arrives quickly and the only damage is to her unit. The night is a disaster despite the firefighter who shows up and happens to looks like a movie star himself. Once again putting off dreams of Hollywood, Ellie heads back to stay with her sister’s family in the town she was raised. She offers to help out with the Hanukah play her nephew’s perform in, something her mother had done for years. Dredging up painful memories of the life she lost and career she never attained, Ellie quietly reflects as she lights the menorah each night. As fate would have it Ellie sees Mr. Hunky Fireman in the window next door. Jonah Spellman may have dropped out of the seminary but he is doing his best to mend fences with his father, the Rabbi. Each carrying their own disappointments, what begins as a secret nightly menorah lighting turns into a friendship that will change everything. ⭐⭐⭐⭐
