A woman’s life is turned upside down by the death of her husband. Go off on a trip to she takes stock of the life that was and considers what is next.
A very heavy and well-done drama, WHAT IS TO COME is the perfect film for anyone who doesn’t want fluffy Hollywood fodder. It is an intense drama about a woman and the people around her during a time of crisis. It’s a beautifully acted by a cast, none of whom seem familiar to me, so all of them disappear even more deeply into their roles.
This is a film that haunts you and doesn’t leave you even after hours and days pass after the end credits roll. In many ways this is a film that should not be seen at a festival because if you are seeing this as part of a day of screenings everything that follows it will be affected. You will not be able to go on to something else when all of these characters are still living in your brain.
A magnificent achievement.
One of the best films at Tribeca.
