Program Notes

With the flip of a coin, Scott McGehee and David Siegel's latest film is set into motion. The filmmaking duo, known for films as disparate as the formally experimental SUTURE, and BEE SEASON (HIFF 2005), explore the very different directions our lives can take with just one decision. Perched atop the Brooklyn Bridge, young lovers Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Lynn Collins' coin flip sends the film's narrative down two separate tracks. Olivia Thirlby (JUNO) rounds out the young cast of UNCERTAINTY, which is at times alternately thrilling and moving: just like life itself.

Expected to be in attendance:  Directors David Siegel & Scott McGehee
