Loggerheads

One son. Two mothers. Three endangered lives.

200595 min5.9 / 10

A quietly introspective ensemble drama about hidden grief, longing, and the quiet intersections of three lives shaped by loss, identity, and unspoken desire.

A troubled woman seeks out the child she gave up for adoption; a gay motel owner takes in a handsome drifter; and the wife of a preacher frets that a gay couple has moved in across the street. All of their lives will intersect as Loggerheads subtly draws out their secret losses and desires.
