Dakota Skye

Phoenix Film Festival - Dakota Skye

For as long as she could remember, Dakota Skye has been cursed with a super power. She has the ability to see the truth in any lie she hears. From small, harmless white lies, to the more devious kind, they have come from the people that she should trust the most; her family, friends and teachers. These lies have snowballed, leading to her becoming bitter and apathetic towards the world around her. At seventeen, Dakota just watches the world happen around her, unmotivated to join it. She has a boyfriend (Kevin) who plays in a semi-popular local rock band and her best friend from childhood (Beth), but continues to float along in her own life. Then one day, Jonah (Kevin's best friend from New York) comes into town. It only takes a few days before Dakota notices something about him that sets him apart from the other people in her life. He doesn't lie. Through her friendship with Jonah, her eyes are opened to the world around her and she sees that there is something out there more than all the lies. There is a possibility of something different - something better. Things quickly become more complicated when Jonah professes his love for Dakota, changing everything. Now she has to look at her life as it was, is and could be and make a choice for the first time.
