Description

NYC PREMIERE After their father disappeared on Long Island in the 1960s, Mike Carroll and his siblings grew up believing he had walked out on the family. Mike’s lingering suspicions and possibly psychosomatic issues eventually lead to an agonizing discovery. With meticulous editing and a bold, almost subversive use of archival footage, director Patricia E. Gillespie evokes the deep hurt of secrets and how they can gnaw away at us on a subterranean level. - Jaie Laplante

The first screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Patricia E. Gillespie.

All in-person screening venues provide sound amplification headphones upon request with venue management. IFC Center can also provide a T-Coil loop for compatible devices.
