Krisha has always been the black sheep of her family. Ten years ago, she walked out on them, even her young son. So when she decides to begin mending her relationships by attending a family holiday, anticipation is high. What begins as a moving testament to her family′s capacity to forgive soon spirals into a deluge of emotional bloodletting, as old wounds are torn open and resentments are laid bare. Krisha is finally forced to face the destruction she left in her wake all those years before; can her family ever forgive her? Can she ever forgive herself? Trey Edward Shults’ first feature Krisha received Grand Jury Award and Audience Award at this year’s SXSW. His meticulous yet bold description of an old woman who is going through crisis with her estranged family and superb performance by Krisha Fairchild made Krisha one of the best American independent films of the year.
