The Reception

Directed by Sean Sakamoto
Manhattan Premiere
Simmering political divisions in America turn violent, trapping the fathers of two grooms in a siege on the day of their sons’ wedding. As sole survivors, the two celebrate the love their sons shared, and reflect on how they could have lived life differently. With riveting performances by Richard Kind and Skipp Sudduth, the reception is a powerful exploration of the desire for love in the midst of a nation torn by hate.
