After years trapped in a stifling life wrangling cattle in the wilds of Canada, Charlotte escapes her controlling husband in a beat-up 1968 Ford Bronco. Her journey leads her back to New
York, where she seeks refuge at her childhood home on Park Avenue. There, her estranged mother, Kit, greets her with sharp wit and a blunt question: “Am I dying?”
Over the course of six tumultuous weeks, Charlotte, fiery and irreverent, clashes and connects with Kit, a master of secrets and lies. Together, they navigate old wounds, shared
history, and unspoken truths. As Charlotte reconnects with Anders, the building’s doorman and her former love, she is drawn back into the world she left behind at 18. Set against the
vibrant backdrop of New York’s Upper East Side and its colourful, intertwined residents, “Park Avenue” delves into the intricate and messy bond between a mother and daughter.
The screening of Park Avenue on Wed 12 Nov will be followed by a Q&A with the film's director, Gaby Dellal.
