Chantilly Lace
Directed by Linda Yellen
Emmy winner Linda Yellen brought together an all-star ensemble cast for "Chantilly Lace," which received worldwide acclaim for its intimate exploration of the secret lives of women. Seven women friends - including a nun in crisis, an angry divorcee, and an unfiltered, sexually-charged artist--gather in the Colorado Rockies at the upscale vacation home of Val (Eikenberry), to celebrate the surprise 40th birthday of popular film critic Natalie (Williams). When Val's offbeat younger sister (Sheedy) arrives with a newcomer, a maverick photojournalist played by Emmy winner Martha Plimpton, tensions rise as secrets of love, loss, and betrayal are revealed. Years of friendship are tested in a pivotal year as the women re-assemble for the engagement of another, and once more to mourn the shocking death of a third. What began as an experiment at Sundance Film Institute explores the landscape of contemporary women's issues with humor and honesty "unlike any American film."
