Ghostlight

Dan, a melancholic middle-aged construction worker, is grieving a family tragedy and feels cut off from his wife and daughter. When he finds himself drawn into a local production of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, Dan finds comfort and community among a misfit company of amateur actors and a way to work through his own family troubles.

Alex Thompson and Kelly O'Sullivan, who previously charmed audiences with Saint Frances (Haifa IFF, 2019), return with Ghostlight, a moving, gently comic film that explores the power of live theater to help us make sense of our offstage dramas and personal narratives. The real-life acting family of Mallen, Kupferer, and Mallen Kupferer brings tenderness and authenticity to this poignant portrait.

Filmography (Thompson): Rounding (2022), Saint Frances (2019).
