Jennifer Lawrence returns to the cinema with a challenging role in the drama resurface (Causeway). The film is a production that belongs to the Apple TV Plus platform and is also co-produced by A24, one of the favorite companies of moviegoers.
The film is that kind of self-effacing, internal drama. Which puts Lawrence in a unique position to once again command the attention of the awards industry and fans in the Oscar race.
Synopsis
resurface is the story of Lindsey, a former soldier who returns to the United States after a war campaign in Afghanistan. The reason for her return is none other than an accident that left her with a delicate head injury after an explosion.
However, his return will not be easy. The frictions in her relationship with her mother, her monotonous job as a pool cleaner and the emptiness she experiences as a war veteran make her stay in New Orleans a torment. She will only find a distraction and some consolation in the unexpected friendship she finds with James, a man who, like her, is confronted with the past.
Between the two, they will try to calm their wounded souls. “A quiet but devastating and ultimately uplifting story about coming to terms with moving on.”
