THINGS WE WANT
By Jonathan Marc Sherman
Directed by Ethan Hawke
with
featuring Paul Dano (Little Miss Sunshine), Peter Dinklage (The Station Agent), Josh Hamilton (Hurlyburly), and Zoe Kazan (Miss Jean Brodie)
Three brothers at loose ends find themselves living together again in their childhood apartment, and wrestle with how to cope with the void left by their parents' deaths. A sweet and sour look at the illusions we have about what can make us happy, and what's actually within our power to change.
