Lovechild

2014· 98 min· Drama

Joined by skeptical documentary filmmaker Dan, who is interested in her story, Cindy is on a mission to deliver a message of great importance to Justin Shandor, Elvis impersonator extraordinaire, who is performing in casinos in the Pacific Northwest, and who, Cindy believes, is the father of her child and the true son of Elvis. According to Cindy, Elvis sent her on this mission when he rose out of the waters of the mighty Willamette River, surrounded by rays of sunlight, appearing in a vision, just as the Blessed Mother Mary herself appeared to Bernadette. Her intentions are pure, Cindy insists. She is not out for money and fame, she states, emphatically defending herself when Dan raises the question. "Don't Be Cruel," Justin sings, aware that he was adopted, but how can he not be to Cindy, whose mission and message seem impossibly far-fetched. Cindy is sure her ex-neighbor Gloria is his mother. Gloria said so. Gloria always played Elvis' music and collected his memorabilia and had a romantic story to tell about Elvis in Vegas. However, Dan went on the Internet and found 76,483 women who said they'd slept with Elvis. And a number of them claimed Justin was their son as well. Will Justin buy her story and join her in raising their love child, or is she headed for Heartbreak Hotel?
