The Safety of Objects
What do you hold on to when your world turns upside down?
Directed by Rose Troche
A contemplative ensemble drama about suburban families fractured by loss and crisis, exploring how people hold onto meaning when their lives unravel.
In a suburban landscape, the lives of several families interlace with loss, despair and personal crisis. Esther Gold has lost focus on all but caring for her comatose son, Paul, and neglects her daughter and husband. Lawyer Jim Train is devoted to his career, not his family. Helen Christianson wants to find a new spark in life, while Annette Jennings tries to rebuild hers.
