In FLORA AND SON, Hewson embodies a single mother in Dublin navigating the challenges of raising her troubled son, Max (Orén Kinlan), while grappling with minimal support from her ex-husband (Jack Reynor). The story takes a turn when she discovers a discarded guitar and embarks on lessons guided by an online instructor based in Los Angeles, portrayed by Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Through this journey, Flora discovers her voice and a poignant connection with her son. Critically acclaimed for her performance, Deadline praised Hewson’s “tour-de-force breakout,” while the Boston Herald hailed her as “glorious” in the titular role.
