A Film About Starting Over
The Next Chapter follows three people reinventing their lives after loss — a documentary-style narrative about resilience, identity, and the courage to begin again.
About the Film
Shot across three cities over eighteen months, The Next Chapter weaves together three interlocking stories of people rebuilding after significant loss — a career collapse, a family rupture, and an emigration. The film asks what it actually takes to start a new chapter, not just plan one.
