WE WERE ÍSLANDS
Saturday, September 25, 2021 at 10:00 PM
FEATURE NARRATIVE | 80 MIN | English | USA
A film by Amrita Pradhan
General Admission $10 | Student + Children $8

Reeta, a young stand-up comedian, feels the heat. As she edges closer to the ominous age of 3-0, she feels the ever-mounting pressure to fall in love, get married, and settle down. Her growing doubts and conservative Indian family are certainly not helping the situation. When she meets  lonely funeral home employee Juliun, her happy ending finally feels imminent. A whimsical dramatic-comedy about trying to fix something that may have been broken all along.
