The Suit
ABOUT THE PROJECT
LOGLINE
In a rural Nebraska town, a woman and her granddaughter go in search of a suit, a seemingly simple task that is revealed to have a much more monumental purpose.
SYNOPSIS
Taking its inspiration from a Hugh Prestwood song, THE SUIT follows the story of Margaret, a woman who, accompanied by her 7-year-old granddaughter Tilly, must find a suit for her husband, a man who has spent his life “scratchin’ the earth” on their Nebraska farm. The film explores how even the simplest task can take on the most monumental importance; how we express love and manage to continue in its absence.
