Opening Night!

New York Premiere! Filmmaker, producer & cast members in person for Q&A!

From executive producer Rose Troche and writer-director Stacie Passon, this funny, sexy and compelling mix of Belle De Jour and The Stepford Wives follows suburban lesbian housewife Abby (Robin Weigert, Deadwood, The Sessions) through an erotic epiphany after suffering a head injury. In the immediate aftermath, she questions whether her picture-perfect family life is enough and decides to revive her career and renovate a loft in New York City. But the space quickly transforms itself into a convenient location for an unexpected sexual reawakening. Concussion had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year.
