Darla Eisler

Of Starlight drops you into the middle of a world where reality and dreams blur together, and honestly, it’s hard to tell which one’s winning. Darla Eisler’s character isn’t your typical starry-eyed protagonist—she’s more like the kind of person who’s seen the worst and just keeps walking anyway, you know? The movie opens with her stumbling through the neon-lit streets of a city that never really sleeps, clutching a battered notebook filled with sketches and secrets. There’s this whole vibe of hope and heartbreak twisted together, like she’s chasing something she isn’t sure is even real. As the story unravels, you meet this weird mix of people—some are chasing their own ghosts, some are just trying to survive one more night. There’s a musician with a busted guitar, a little kid who talks to the stars, and a bartender who’s seen way too much to care anymore. The plot weaves all these lives together, and you start to realize everyone’s carrying their own kind of starlight, whatever that means for them. It’s not all gloom, though. There are bits that’ll make you laugh, maybe even root for these lost souls. The city almost feels alive, pushing and pulling everyone around like a tide. By the end, you’re left wondering if finding starlight is about catching some dream, or just learning to live with the shadows. If you’re into stories that don’t wrap everything up with a neat little bow, this one’s gonna hit home.
