Look Again. Jan 19 – 29, 2012 Park City, Utah

Expectant parents Alice and Dave join Alice’s younger sister, Steph, and her new boyfriend, Jeremy, on an impromptu tropical getaway in Cambodia. But following Jeremy’s abrupt disappearance, the others must attempt to return to their normal lives in Sydney. The shell-shocked survivors' recovery begins to fall apart when a stinging truth about their time in Cambodia is revealed. The three must contend with the fallout, along with the looming threat of further revelations about that fateful night.

With a nonlinear time line used to maximum effect, and each actor realizing two distinct versions of a character—before and after the vacation from hell—Kieran Darcy-Smith successfully orchestrates a remarkably ambitious feature debut. Anchored by Joel Edgerton’s impeccable performance as Dave, a man desperate to cling to his shattered family, the intense and stylish Wish You Were Here is a searing refutation of the notion that what happens on vacation can’t follow us home. - H.Z.
