Day

Beskrivelse

Day follows a family navigating the challenges of life as they face love, loss, and change over three pivotal years. Set against the backdrop of a Brooklyn brownstone, it explores their struggles to hold together while growing apart.

A poignant look at family dynamics, love, and resilience through the shifting tides of time.

On April 5th, 2019, in a cozy Brooklyn brownstone, cracks begin to show beneath the surface of Dan and Isabel’s marriage. Both find themselves drawn to Isabel’s younger brother, Robbie, the family’s restless spirit who still lives in the attic loft. Robbie, dealing with a recent breakup, has crafted a glamorous online persona but now must leave the home, a move that threatens to unravel the family.

Meanwhile, ten-year-old Nathan starts to find his own independence, while five-year-old Violet tries to ignore the growing tension between her parents.

By April 5th, 2020, as lockdown sets in, the brownstone feels more like a prison. Violet becomes obsessed with safety, afraid to open windows, while Isabel and Dan exchange cautious, frustrated glances. Robbie is stranded alone in a cabin in Iceland, accompanied only by his thoughts and secret Instagram life.

On April 5th, 2021, as the family emerges from the crisis, they must confront a new reality shaped by what they've endured and lost. They face the challenge of moving forward with the lessons learned, exploring how to live together and apart.

From Pulitzer Prize winner Michael Cunningham comes Day, a beautifully crafted and intense reflection on love, loss, and the complexities of family life-questioning the bonds that hold us and the possibility of breaking free from traditional narratives.
