New Jerusalem
Sean, an Irish immigrant to America, returning from military service in Afghanistan, finds his heart and mind in disarray. He befriends Ike, (Will Oldham, in his first leading role since Old Joy) a strong willed Evangelical Christian, who endeavours to ensure the fragile Sean’s salvation. A meditation on mutual need and frailty, New Jerusalem explores the allure and limitations of modern utopian belief.
