Ciggie (2026)

Eleven-year-old Joseph and his twelve-year-old sidekick, Joyce, share an unbreakable bond that lights up their world. When the pair slips away into the wild scrubland behind their homes to secretly light their very first cigarette, a quiet adventure begins. But as the smoke clears, a deeper truth emerges: while Joseph’s home life is shadowed by hardship and tension, his fierce and luminous friendship with Joyce becomes his saving grace—a radiant spark of joy and resilience against the gray realities waiting at his front door.
