It comes from the same writer-director and is also focused around music.
Apple TV+ has released the first trailer for Flora and Son, a new Irish comedy-drama from writer-director John Carney (Once, Sing Street) that stars Bad Sisters' Eve Hewson.
The movie follows a single mom named Flora (Hewson), who is at a loss about what to do with her rebellious teenage son, Max (newcomer Orén Kinlan).
After Max has a run-in with the Gardaí, Flora is encouraged to find her son a hobby.
Discovering an old guitar in a skip, she believes that music may be the answer and winds up seeking the services of an LA-based online guitar teacher (Joseph Gordon-Levitt).
