Recommendations of Familiar

  • Scott Sickles: Familiar

    Sometimes two people can sit at a table reminiscing and the stakes could not be higher. FAMILIAR is a powerful tale, simply told, about the two-front war against dementia. Part of the tragedy is that, despite not being able to recognize his son, Dad's having a pretty good day. While the father has the great stories, the weight of this drama is carried by the son who has to balance anguish, civility, and love in the face of an intimate oblivion. Great roles!
