The Designated Mourner

Trailer: I Am the Designated Mourner


Listen Later

Something’s happening in the country where Jack lives. There’s violence in the streets. Leaders are being replaced. Public life is transforming. The government is cracking down on anyone suspected of subversion. But Jack—consumed with his atrophying marriage to Judy, his corrosive envy of his famous poet–intellectual father-in-law Howard, and his disintegrating sense of self—barely notices. As the once-liberal society around him descends into authoritarianism, Jack plunges into his own parallel decline, a chilling abdication of everything he once valued.
Featuring Wallace Shawn, Deborah Eisenberg, and Larry Pine. Written by Wallace Shawn, directed by André Gregory, sound design and music composed by Bruce Odland, and produced by Sean Williams.
