In Curry Barker’s debut feature film OBSESSION, the main character Bear is a hopeless romantic working in a music store, too scared to tell his childhood friend Nikki how he truly feels. He wanders into a New Age shop and picks up a kitschy novelty toy — the One Wish Willow — which, for $6.99, promises one wish. His desire: for Nikki to love him more than anything in the world. And just like that, she does. Nothing could go wrong. Right? What follows is a darkly compelling spiral into obsession, consequence, and just how dangerous it is to get exactly what you wished for.
The film stars Michael Johnston (Teen Wolf) opposite Inde Navarrette (Superman & Lois), with Cooper Tomlinson, Megan Lawless, and Andy Richter rounding out the cast.
