GHOSTLIGHT

When a construction worker unexpectedly joins a local theater’s production of Romeo and Juliet, the drama onstage starts to mirror his own life.

Attuned to the emotions that flicker and flare at the tender edges of day-to-day life, Alex Thompson and Kelly O’Sullivan embrace the community and catharsis to be found in art in this Sundance darling. A film of rare sincerity, Ghostlight is limned with performances of extraordinary warmth.
