Ghostlight
Kelly O'Sullivan, Alex Thompson / US, 2024 / 115 min.
Portrait drenched in life experience of an American family facing a host of emotional issues that need addressing. By chance, father Dan becomes involved with an amateur dramatic group – what happens on stage gradually starts to hold up a mirror to Dan’s life offstage.
Construction worker Dan has enough on his plate trying to bring up his all-but-unmanageable teenage daughter, as well as a long-running court case against the ex-girlfriend of his deceased son Brian. Dan tends to bottle it all up inside; then, when the problems get too much, they come bursting out in the form of violent rages.

Screened at prominent national and international festivals, yet never released in Dutch cinemas. Quite unjustly so, Eye Filmmuseum thinks, and so it has once again brought an exceptional selection of films from international festivals to the Netherlands.
