Movie Haiku:Marling stars (in a part she co-wrote with Cahill) as a brilliant young woman struggling with the consequences of a teenage catastrophe. Rich found the SciFi subplot distracting, but Jan loves this intense psychological drama of rebirth & renewal. Marling is definitely someone to watch (even tho Cahill is the one who got both Sundance prizes)...
