Ghostlight
A beautifully woven tale on the constructive ways that life and art reflect, propel, and imitate each other, offering a path forward.
-- Harper's Bazaar
Part of Reel Talk With Stephen Farber film series
Ghostlight
When melancholic construction worker Dan finds himself drifting from his wife and daughter, he discovers community and purpose in a local theater’s production of Romeo and Juliet. As the drama onstage starts to mirror his own life, he and his family are forced to confront a personal loss.
"There’s an appealing naturalness to the project: O’Sullivan and Thompson are real-life partners directing a real-life family in their city, Chicago." -Guardian
"O’Sullivan has a natural storytelling gift, coupled with a knack for comedy, she takes grieving families, difficult teens, small-town communities and rearranges them into a surprising and moving narrative." -Variety
