Sammy just moved into her first apartment without any roommates. She soon discovers, however, that it is haunted by Bartholomew, a sixteen-year-old Victorian ghost. Both residents must face the reality of being without their families—while coexisting together.

Director Statement: When they’re broken down to their core, most stories are about love. This complex and beautiful emotion drives us and constantly shapes our lives and the world around us. I love stories about love, which is why I was so intrigued when I read the script for Coexisting. This is a movie about a type of love that deserves to be explored more: the love we have for our families.
