- Synopsis
- A man approaching middle age decides to change his life. A rising young attorney's plans are thrown into disarray as the result of a single act. A woman faces her husband's infidelity. An envious businessman seeks revenge on a cheerful coworker and an optimistic young cleaning woman awaits a miracle. Just the ebb and flow of daily New York life: chaotic, isolated, diffuse.
Or is it? How can we know what effect we have on a passing stranger? What if the smallest gesture can change the course of someone's life? Perhaps fate is in fact a product of the choices we make -- how we choose to accept seemingly random events, whether or not we opt to see the interconnectedness of things. Perhaps, too, there really is a light at the end of the tunnel, even if we can't see it yet.
Thirteen Conversations About One Thing weaves five contemporary stories together into a single tale that examines the dramatic impact people have on one another.-

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Demands the utmost concentration, for to look away from the screen for even a brief moment is to risk losing a plot line or a crucial bit of information, but its cumulative, transporting impact makes it worth the effort."
-
"This intelligent, engaging indie sets out to find a few answers and in the process introduces a clutch of interesting, very human characters"
-
"It takes a while for this oddball film -- a mosaic of stories in the style of 'Magnolia' -- to take hold, but when it does, it grabs you hard."
-
"Smart, serious and deftly composed (...) 'Thirteen Conversations About One Thing', is the kind of work you want to applaud just for its ambitions."
