Where to Land

A farce about a renowned director of romantic comedies who, in his senior years, applies for a job as assistant groundskeeper in a cemetery. Because he does this at the same time as meeting his lawyer to address his last will and testament, his family, friends, and neighbors assume he is dying and crowd into his apartment to express their farewells.

The film features actors long familiar to Hartley fans, such as Bill Sage, Robert John Burke, and Edie Falco, and also includes less frequent but seasoned collaborators as Gia Crovatin, Joe Perrino, and Obie Award winner Kathleen Chalfant. Finally, the film introduces the talents of a younger generation of actors: Kim Taff, Katelyn Sparks, Jeremy Hendrik, Jay Lenox and Aida Johannes.

Q&A’s with Hal Hartley following 9/12 and 9/16 screenings.
