A Ghost Story

David Lowery writes and directs this fantasy drama, starring Casey Affleck and Rooney Mara. He is a musician who lives with his wife in a small house in Dallas, Texas. She wants to move somewhere else, but he refuses to leave. The debate over moving becomes the center of their relationship, and every conversation reveals how differently they feel. He clings to the house and what it represents, while she looks for a fresh starting point. Tension builds in a space they both know by heart and that begins to weigh on them more than they admit. The conflict seems simple, but it touches something deeper: what it means to put down roots in a place and what it costs to leave it behind.
