Henry Poole Is Here
Changing his attitude will take a miracle.
Directed by Mark Pellington
Produced by Overture Films, Lakeshore Entertainment
A tender, spiritually-inflected drama about a dying man's isolation broken by community and faith, balancing melancholy with genuine warmth and redemptive hope.
Henry Poole abandons his fiancée and family business to spend what he believes are his remaining days alone. The discovery of a 'miracle' by a nosy neighbor ruptures his solitude and restores his faith in life.
