READING-Nanna by David Simpatico

Directed by Sydnie Grosberg Ronga

Nanna, an 88 year-old woman comes back from the dead to settle some unresolved issues with her grandson, but along the way, examines her own history of child abuse and her role in the intergenerational pathology of incest. Part sex comedy, part Greek tragedy, Nanna uses black comedy to examine the intimate turmoil of intergenerational incest, and to find a potential escape from the cyclical prison of abuse.
