Three sisters gather annually to memorialize their mother, who was a 9/11 victim. Their rituals, lingering grief, and anxiety over future terrorist attacks and rising antisemitism create a palpable tension among them. Claudia Haas brilliantly captures the various stages these sisters find themselves in, from being stuck in the past to making a clean break. Their journey to understand each other and deal with their loss is captivating. Beautifully done.
