A CLOSE UP series event
With Mary Stuart Masterson in-person & Diane Ladd via Skype
Victoria (Mary-Stuart Masterson) is a university professor who has a grudge with her self-absorbed mother, the well-known actress, Carmen Crawford (Diane Ladd), for crushing her dreams of becoming a playwright. But when Carmen suffers a life-threatening stroke and wakes up thinking she is living 15 years in the past, Victoria is given a unique opportunity to figure out where her life went off track and start fresh with her mother. Damian Romay’s poignant film celebrates second chances and deep familial love. (U.S., 2022, 96m)
