Description:
A grumpy old man and a free-spirited traveler form an unlikely bond while restoring a classic car—until devastating news changes everything.

In this poignant and emotional drama, an unexpected bond forms between two total strangers: a hardened, reclusive old man and a free-spirited young traveler. When the young man asks for a job, the old man—initially distant and judgmental—reluctantly offers him work restoring a classic car intended for his son, who is deployed in Afghanistan. As the car project progresses, their unlikely friendship deepens, only to be tested by devastating news.
Greetings from California is a touching exploration of friendship, grief, healing, and the life-changing connections we make along the way.


Starring: Ryan Caraway and William D McAndrews

Written and Directed by: Alexis De La Cruz
