Open Hearted
NEW DOCS
“Making this film almost killed me,” said producer, director and editor Marc Ostrick, who chronicles the most difficult experience of his life: preparing for, undergoing and recovering from his third open-heart surgery, at age 27. In the process of confronting his own mortality, the filmmaker also copes with his anxious, divorced parents who haven’t seen each other in years. A genuinely clever and heartwarming journey. JW
