Before The Rain

Before the rain, before the diner, before everything fell apart, there was Christopher.
A boy with shaking hands, a record player that never stopped spinning, and a mother who loved him in the wrong ways.
When the drugs take her and the silence takes him, Christopher learns to live inside the noise, the ticking, the static, the echo of songs that once meant home.
By fifteen, he's dropped out, moved into a rusted trailer on the edge of nowhere, and learned that loving someone only ever comes with a countdown.

A haunting portrait of mental illness, addiction, and the desperate ache for connection, Before The Rain is the story of how Christopher broke long before anyone knew he was breaking.
