Waiting for the Miracle to Come

An aspiring trapeze artist discovers a cryptic letter her recently deceased father once wrote, directing her to a gold mine in a remote California desert. Upon arriving in a mysterious town, she finds herself at the gates of The Beautiful Place, a house occupied by retired vaudeville stars Jimmy and Dixie Riggs. As she gets to know the eccentric couple, she discovers her father’s words were directing her to a reward far more valuable than gold. (Austin Film Festival)
