A Room Nearby

NEW DOCS

Five people muse on how the experience of loneliness gave them the life-changing gift of introspection. Domino gets rich in the shipping business but blows a fortune and slips into despair. Pamela has a boring job and finds nighttime companionship with a team of graffiti artists. Tom, a carpenter, and Lynn, a writer, are both alienated from their families, although Tom’s background is wealth and Lynn’s extreme poverty. And finally, film director Milos Forman talks about the trauma of losing his dog. The creators of this original animated documentary remind all that no matter where one is, there is always a lonely person in a room nearby.  LB
