Gil's money and titles have no meaning when his brother, who may lack possessions but is rich in his ability to love, writes a beautiful eulogy for their late mother, a eulogy Gil wishes he had composed. Technical difficulties delay the funeral, and Gil attempts to outshine his brother, but is forced to confront the sad truth about himself and his relationship with his mother. Consumed by shame and envy, Gil is determined to become the son he longs to be.

This movie is part of our Short Films evening at Narberth Theater. The screenings will be followed by a Q&A and discussion with Peter Decherney, a Professor of Cinema & Media Studies at the University of Pennsylvania.
