Set in a city still recovering from the trauma of September 11th, this film explores the interconnected lives of six New Yorkers as they struggle to heal their wounds and reach out to one another. These include Janeane Garofalo as Liz, a woman unable to leave her downtown apartment since the terrorist attack; Giancarlo Esposito's street poet, Karl, who attempts to release her from her shell; and Samantha (Jennifer Carpenter), a bartender keeping many secrets. A tapestry of stories about troubled people learning to live their lives to the fullest, BEYOND THE ASHES is a touching, quirky tribute to a city and its more offbeat denizens. [More]
