Q&A with director Kazik Radwanski following the September 21, 7:30 p.m. showtime.
"A sly and sharply observed comedy." - Stephen Saito, Moveable Fest
"The naturalistic camerawork and performances ground the film in realism, creating a wry dramedy that refuses to placate us with easy answers or condescension." - Hannah Strong, Little White Lies
Opens September 20 | Mara (Deragh Campbell, recently on screen at the Film Center in FAMILY PORTRAIT) is a creative writing professor struggling with problems in her marriage to musician Samir (Mounir Al Shami). A chance encounter reconnects her with Matt (Matt Johnson, director and co-star of BLACKBERRY), a free-spirited and charming author from her past. When Mara’s husband cancels plans to join her for a work conference, Matt accompanies her on the trip instead, and the tension of their undefined relationship begins to grow. Director Kazik Radwanski (ANNE AT 13,000 FT.) presents a wry, intelligent portrait of a complex relationship with two powerhouse performances at its core. Film Center exclusive. Q&A with director Kazik Radwanski following the September 21, 7:30 p.m. showtime.
