Direct from the Sundance Film Festival, BREATHE IN pairs director Drake Doremus--who won the fest's Grand Jury Prize in 2011 for LIKE CRAZY--with that film's luminous star Felicity Jones for this captivating family drama.
Soulful and musical British exchange student Sophie Williams (Jones) comes to New York in search of inspiration. She is hosted there by a seemingly happy family, but upon her arrival, the private struggles of each family member begin to bubble. In particular, frustrated musician-turned-piano teacher Keith Reynolds (Guy Pearce) finds long suppressed dreams and desires reignited by Sophie’s talent and inquisitive nature. While Keith’s wife, Megan (Amy Ryan) and daughter, Lauren (breakout talent Mackenzie Davis) focus on Lauren’s final year of high school, Sophie and Keith are drawn ever closer by their mutual longing for creative expression. Ultimately, Sophie and Keith must confront how much they are willing to sacrifice and what they truly want out of life.
