Adrift in Manhattan

Rose, an optometrist paralyzed by grief after the death of her infant, has built a wall around herself. When an elderly patient, a painter losing his eyesight, begins to visit her office unannounced, Rose registers his loneliness and urges him to ask for help - something neither does easily. Meanwhile Simon, a teenager with an overbearing mother, photographs people at a distance with a borrowed long lens. When Rose comes into his focus, he captures her on film, and the pictures he takes connects them, and provides a way out for each of them from their self-imposed exile. (High Fliers Films)
