Back in theaters starting April 5.

Adapted from the play by Amy Nostbakken and Norah Sadava, the newest film by Patricia Rozema (I've Heard the Mermaids Singing) centers on Cassandra, an aspiring writer who, while struggling to compose a eulogy after the sudden death of her mother, comes to discover that her own rebelliousness is as much a response to the male gaze as her mother's conformity. Enacting the two sides of Cassandra's conflicting inner dialogue, playwright-performers Nostbakken and Sadava create a compelling portrayal of the tension between regression and progress that is often found within women.
