Play Me Like That

A tender and refreshingly honest portrait of sisterhood, this short film captures the quiet complexities of love, resentment, and reconciliation between two women. It thoughtfully explores the rarely depicted emotional terrain of two sisters at a crossroads, as they face a life-changing decision that will alter their relationship. The performances from the cast are superb and heartfelt. What comes about is a film that takes you on a journey of the heartbreaking and hopeful, as our protagonist comes to terms with the unexpected and her own personal journey and hopes for motherhood. A reminder that what we plan for and expect might not always be what we receive.

This film touched me to my core. It feels rare to see a film now-a-days that resonates with you so deeply you're left pondering the themes long after you've finished the move but this is definitely one of those films!! Absolutely amazing. I hope to see this film go even further or even turn into a full feature film.

Play Me Like That is a tender, emotionally layered short that leaves a lasting impression. Nicole Gabriella Scipione delivers a near-acrobatic performance-balancing vulnerability, wit, and remarkable emotional range. The film explores identity, memory, and human connection through striking visual poetry and writing that feels both intelligent and alive. Every moment feels intentional and true, with small gestures carrying deep emotional weight. A quiet triumph that rewards close attention-this team clearly poured their hearts and souls into creating something unforgettable and profoundly moving.

I had the thrill of viewing the film, "Play Me Like That" staring, Nicole Gabriella Scipione as Slipper and Alina Phelan as Crescent whom are sisters in this beautiful story of sisterly love and their magical relationship.

Their onscreen relationship will make you believe they are sisters off screen as it is pure magic.

The story is about two wild, fun-loving, hippy-type, free-spirited sisters whom both long to have a child and their journey going forward to achieve that goal, along with the emotions attached to making that dream a reality.

Their magical relationship screams of the love they have for one another as well as the love in their hearts for the unborn child they long to have and be a part of one another lives.

The onscreen relationship between Nicole and Allina is just like they were real blood-bonded sisters.

They portrayed their parts with beauty, grace and love for one another in the onscreen parts they portrayed.

The music was beautiful and very fitting for the film.

You will need to be prepared to laugh, cry, and have a plethora of emotions as you take this journey with the sisters.

I look forward to more of Nicole's brilliant work in film being seen very soon.

From playful, sisterly antics to moments of grief and raw emotion, this film shows some of the most intimate, tender moments a relationship can have. Play Me Like That movingly portrays a bond between two sisters. I could feel the history behind Slipper and Crescent, as well as their friendship. I love the blend of more intense dialogue between the sisters woven in with light-hearted dancing and laughter.

The character, Slipper, played by Nicole Gabriella Scipione is especially captivating. Slipper possesses a child-likeness that contrasts with her sister's more practical personality. Slipper is whimsical, passionate, earnest. It's really her story I was brought into, I could feel her longing.

The film is so expertly written and so beautifully acted it immediately pulled me in. It was poetic, heartfelt, sad yet peaceful. I highly recommend Play Me Like That!!
