Ghostlight

Trail & District Arts Council’s MONDAY CINEMA presents Ghostlight at The Royal Theatre, 1597 Bay Avenue, Trail on Monday, October 21 at 4 pm.
Doors open at 3:30 pm.

When Dan (Keith Kupferer), a melancholic middle-aged construction worker, finds himself drifting from his wife and daughter after his son’s suicide, he discovers community and purpose in a local theatre’s production of Romeo and Juliet.

But as the drama on stage starts to mirror his own life, he finds the tragedies of the play too close to his own. Unwilling to confront his grief at home, he begins to confront his loss through the play. Funny and heartwarming, “Ghostlight” is an exploration of how we feel love and loss through art.

“Directors Kelly O’Sullivan (who also provides the exquisite screenplay) and Alex Thompson have delivered a hushed, confidently devastating, and ultimately hopeful drama that never follows a traditional path.” Sara Michelle Fetters, MovieFreak.com
