Snapshots
Runner-up in the Audience Award at the 2019 Mardi Gras Film Festival, Snapshots unveils the secrets, loves, and losses of three generations of women.
At a lakeside family reunion, when a roll of old film brings to light a love affair between two women in the early 1960s, matriarch Rose, in a touching performance by Piper Laurie, recalls moments of enduring love for her enigmatic friend Louise. As she escapes into these memories, replaying each romantic and deeply satisfying detail, she draws strength from her youthful self and reveals these profound truths of her heart to her family. Rose’s daughter and granddaughter, initially conflicted, become compelled to confront their own challenges with renewed strength. Playful, emotional, and gripping, the story of Rose and Louise is easy to be swept away by.
