To mark her 50th birthday, filmmaker Lynne Sachs gathers a group of her contemporariesāall New Yorkers but originally hailing from all corners of the globeāfor a weekend of recollection and reflection on the most life-altering personal, local, and international events of the past half- century, creating what Sachs calls āa collective distillation of our times.ā Interspersed with poetry and flashes of archival footage, this poignant reverie reveals how far beyond our control life is, and how far we can go despite this.
