A LOVE SONG

Faye, a modern, romantic, ascetic figure, leads an austerely simple life in a trailer parked beside an open lake, south of the Colorado Rockies. She catches shellfish for dinner and listens to the radio, following humble everyday rituals as she eagerly awaits the arrival of an important guest: the man she loved in her days of youth, with whom they share a legacy of pain and weeds. Time has carved a map on her face, which in turn reflects the rough, yet imposing landscape of Americana. A gentle, laconic film about contemplative introspection, the power of feelings, loss and longing, and the depths of melancholy, featuring a tour-de-force performance of the greatest character actors of our time. The heart – this lonely hunter – always invites us to sing along, even if we don't know the words.
