Resurrection

In the quiet, orderly streets of Albany, a city that feels both familiar and confining, Margaret has crafted a life built on precision and control. As a successful businesswoman and single mother, she balances demanding work obligations with the everyday rituals of raising her daughter, Abby, who is on the cusp of leaving home for college. The atmosphere is one of restrained elegance, where polished office towers cast long shadows over modest family kitchens, and the rhythm of daily routine offers a comforting sense of predictability.

That fragile equilibrium is unsettled by the sudden reappearance of a figure from Margaret’s past—David. His return is a quiet but powerful disruption, coaxing memories that have long been buried beneath layers of self‑imposed order. The tone shifts to a subtle, psychological unease, as the line between what is real and what is remembered begins to blur. In this world of near‑perfect surfaces, the undercurrent of unresolved history threatens to seep into every decision, turning ordinary moments into sources of tension.

Around her, the people who have entered Margaret’s life—colleagues, friends, and the ever‑present Peter, a charismatic yet complicated presence—serve as both anchors and mirrors, reflecting the inner conflict she fights to suppress. The film moves with a measured, almost breath‑holding cadence, drawing viewers into a mood that is both intimate and haunting. As the story unfolds, Margaret must navigate the delicate balance between holding onto the life she has meticulously built and confronting the darkness that her past insists is still very much alive, leaving the audience poised on the edge of what will happen when control finally slips away.
