A thought provoking fable about fate and the all-consuming power of love, Back Soon is an evocative film infused with elements of the supernatural and magical realism.

When Logan loses his beloved wife in a car accident, he doesn’t know how to pick up the pieces. After nine months of mourning, he decides to sell his home, and a mysterious man named Gil, who claims to have a peculiar attraction to the house, purchases it within an hour. Though Gil and Logan both identify as straight, they are drawn to each other, and the nature of their relationship becomes increasingly complex. When the origins of their feelings are revealed to be something otherworldly, Logan and Gil must struggle to make meaning of the love that both confounds and consumes them. Does Logan love Gil, or does he merely love the memory of his wife? Are Gil’s feelings his own?

Director Rob Williams explores the perplexing subject of friendship between the two men, and then completely turns the issue upside down. Seeing two staunchly “heterosexual” characters in a passionate embrace is a cinematic experience both rare and electrifying. Equal parts mystery and myth, Back Soon is a romantic tale about the incomparable power of love.

Rob Williams will be attending a post-film Q&A.
