Synopsis:
Theresa, a rebellious orphan from Brooklyn with dreams of showbiz stardom, refuses to let her challenging circumstances hold her back. Her indomitable spirit and outrageous schemes set the stage for a chance encounter with Sammy Cohen, a washed-up comedian whose career fizzled due to alcoholism.
Sammy sees the spark in Theresa that others overlook and becomes her unlikely mentor. Together, they embark on an extraordinary journey filled with laughter, tears, and unforgettable moments as they discover the power of friendship, perseverance, and the magic of believing in oneself.
Hey Babe! is a heartwarming story of dreams, determination, and the transformational power of mentorship.
From the Director
“This film never seems to age,” says Zielinski. “It’s a Star Is Born archetype told from a teenager’s perspective, filled with heart, soul, and the irresistible retro disco craze. It also features Buddy Hackett, whose charm transcends generations.”
A Six-Movie Collection of Indie Classics
Hey Babe! is part of a six-film collection directed by Rafal Zielinski, available on major platforms and the filmmaker’s boutique streaming site, FilmArtMovies.com. The collection includes three festival favorites (Hey Babe!, Fun, Ginger Ale Afternoon) and three premieres (Age of Kali, A Thousand and One Nights in Bohemia, and a director’s cut of Tiger Within titled Embracing the Tiger).
Rafal Zielinski, known for his work with Roger Corman, describes his films as a celebration of “rebels, misfits, and outsiders searching for love and understanding in a broken world.” He hopes his films will “challenge, provoke, and inspire,” resonating with audiences both old and new.
