Hey, Juniper!

Hey, Juniper!

She’s fine. She’s thriving. EVERYTHING IS FINE!

2026 · 97 min · Drama, Comedy

After the sudden death of her husband, Juniper Buchanan channels her grief into a series of hilariously misguided life choices. With her husband's urn as her constant companion, she slips into a world of denial that's equal parts touching and chaotic. "Hey, Juniper!" is a dark comedy about the messy, ridiculous ways we stumble through the unbearable.
