About CHARLY (Flowers for Algernon)

On Impulse Veteran Actress, Lynette Johnson, makes her directorial debut in this incredible love story.

Does intelligence define one’s happiness in life?

Charly Gordon, a mentally disabled, middle-aged man is about to find out when he is selected for experimental surgery that could possibly make him a genius. Only a mouse named Algernon has tried this operation before and when he did - he became the smartest mouse on earth!

When the operation’s inventor, Dr. Straus, selects Charly Gordon for the operation, everything in Charly’s life, even his job at the bakery, where he is always taunted, seems to come unraveled. And he finds himself in love with Alice, the kind teacher who always guided him. Suddenly, Charly’s intelligence even exceeds that of Alice and Dr. Straus!

When Charly becomes a genius, he knows his life and intelligence has skyrocketed. He now knows who is a friend and who isn’t. But what Charly doesn’t know is that operation that made him a genius. . . is only temporary and time is running out.

Charly (Flowers for Algernon) is a story about human behavior – a story about how we treat those less fortunate than us. But most of all, Charly is a love story that profoundly touches the human heart.
