Weightless
Apart from a few modest houses, a bar, a petrol station with a mini-market, and a garbage dump, rural Fulton County, Georgia is devoid of life. Introverted Joel works at a garbage dump, where he occasionally discovers a usable glass bottle that he cleans and brings home. Then, one day, he receives an unexpected phone call: his ex-wife has vanished, leaving him in charge of his son. Joel, who is set to see his son for the first time, has no idea how he will establish a relationship with 10-year-old Will, who also appears to exist in his own world. Fortunately for them, Clara, a brilliant neighborhood girl, steps in to assist, and Will begins to open up to his father. However, the youth welfare officer is already at the door, banging. Jaron Albertin's directorial debut is a tender, slightly sad movie about two strangers who develop a profound understanding of one another.
