Flora and Son stars Eve Hewson as single mom Flora, at a loss about what to do with her rebellious teenage son, Max (Orén Kinlan). Her efforts to keep him out of trouble lead to a beat-up acoustic guitar, a washed-up LA musician (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) and harmony for this frayed Dublin family. Apple releases it in select US theaters September 22, and streaming worldwide on AppleTV+ September 29, with the exception of Ireland where it will release in theaters on February 23, 2024.
