SYNOPSIS
After the death of her mother, Natalia rebuilds her relationship with her father Maurice.
Natalia attends her mother’s funeral. She weathers mourner after mourner alone while her emotionally avoidant father, Maurice, hides behind the shadow of his wife’s passing. Without her mother to bridge their relationship, Natalia and Maurice are left to piece together their relationship after years of hurt, resentment, and misunderstanding. It’s a meditation on love and loss, grief and healing. Ashes is an ode to parents and children.
