Synopsis

Disarming in its subtly, A YEAR IN MOORING is the quiet cinematic journey about the inevitability of change.

Starring Josh Lucas in his first leading dramatic role, A YEAR IN MOORING follows the story of a successful businessman (Lucas) attempting to resurrect his life. Entering an idyllic harbor as a broken and haunted man, he buys and boards a dilapidated sailboat.

Walking an isolated line between solitude and redemption, he’s watched by three equally mysterious residents: a waitress (Ayelet Zurer), the veteran mariner (James Cromwell), and a newly single father (Jon Tenney). Directed by Chris Eyre (Smoke Signals). (PG-13)
