RED HOUSE

Filmmakers in attendance. Film program will be followed by Q&A

An addict, shunned by his community, is released from prison and goes straight to the beach to test his longtime fear of the ocean. When he sees someone struggling in the water, he is devastated to realize he’s incapable of saving them. Only the ghosts from his past can make him confront his terror, and push through toward redemption and self-forgiveness.
