Description
Following his acclaimed debut The Myth of Fingerprints,
Bart Freundlich poses the question "what would it be like to run away from your life?" The film centers on a restless New Yorker named Cal (
Billy Crudup) who one day drives off into the open road, leaving his wife and infant son behind. A series of flashbacks show Cal's domestic malaise and disillusionment with his life. Cal meets a number of unusual characters who are similarly untethered. One is Dulcie (
Julianne Moore), a fragile woman looking for
her lost son. Through his interaction with Dulcie, Cal reflects on his own family and soon finds himself heading to his boyhood home and his father.
A hit at the 2001 Toronto Film Festival.
