This film is family friendly.

Keel is a coming-of-age drama short film set in the summer of 1977, where we follow an impressionable young woman navigating life and love in her early 20's.

Director's Statement

Born and raised in Central Phoenix, Margaret is a filmmaker and first-year grad student at USC School of Cinematic Arts studying Film & TV Production. Through making Keel, she realized that she was invested in amplifying female voices. Especially female driven narratives that demonstrate how young women navigate their lives on both a personal and emotional level. Margaret chose to tell this story because it's based on a true story about how her parents met and follows the main character Keel, where she's at a point in her life where the emotions she's experiencing in 1977 are no different than the emotions women feel today.
