CHASING SHAKESPEARE
Told in flashback from his wife's deathbed, "Chasing Shakespeare" protagonist William Ward (Danny Glover) dives under the gloomy waters of his memory to recall the love story of his life with Venus, a girl belonging to the Lighting Clan, a peculiar Native American family living in Arkansas with a strange communion with electricity. Their love is a difficult scenario to play: in a very Greek-Shakespearean tragedy manner, both of them belong to different cultures and backgrounds. Directed by Norry Niven, 2013, 116 min., USA, Drama, English. Show with Prospect Q&A after screening and reception for Opening Night.
