Take Me Home is a 2026 American drama film written, produced, and directed by Liz Sargent. It is a feature film adaptation of the 2023 short film of the same name. It stars Anna Sargent, Victor Slezak, Ali Ahn, Marceline Hugot, and Shane Harper.
Anna cares for her aging parents in a fragile balance of meeting one another's needs. When a Florida heat wave shatters their family and Anna's routine, her future is uncertain until she creates a world where she can thrive. [2]
In 2024, it was announced that the short would be adapted into a feature-length film. [3] Sargent partnered with Caring Across Generations, a national advocacy organization that focuses on assisting those who require long-term care and home care workers, to help finance the project. In 2025, Sargent became a recipient of the Tribeca Festival AT&T Untold Stories grant, awarding $1 million towards the funding of the feature-length version of Take Me Home. [4] In October 2025, The Hollywood Reporter noted that the feature-length wrapped filming the prior month, taking place in Florida. The cast of the feature-length included Anna Sargent as Anna, Victor Slezak as Bob, Ali Ahn as Emily, Marceline Hugot as Joan, and Shane Harper as James. [5]
Take Me Home premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on January 26, 2026, where it won the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award. [1] [6]
