Foldes teams with producer Victoria Page Meyerink to weave a haunting tale of family tragedy and painful memories starring Geneviève Bujold, Louise Fletcher, and Lisa Brenner. Troubled by traumatic memories of being forcefully removed from her grandmother's serine New England bed and breakfast, Amanda is forced to return to the house of her childhood as the fragmented memories of her past slowly begin to come together. With past secrets relating to the events that simultaneously shaped her childhood and destroyed her family gradually rising to the surface, the betrayal of the past and her inexplicable hesitance towards the inn's young caretaker lead to a startling revelation that will bring three generations of blurred memories into sharp focus. As Exorcist star Jason Miller's last film, this was released posthumously. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Rex Reed, New York Observer
Honest and relevant, intense and riveting, it's a cause for rejoicing.
-
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times
Bujold anchors the film and brings to it a crucial sense of multiple levels. She and Fletcher, although seen only in flashbacks as Esther, lend crucial support to Brenner, as do others. There's more to Finding Home than may meet the eye.
-
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
It's an utter mess, I don't know what it was about, it drove me crazy.
-
Wesley Morris, Boston Globe
What happens between these characters might be incredibly traumatic for them, but there's little in it for us.
-
Norm Schrager, Filmcritic.com
Thomas Wolfe may have been right when he said you can't go home again. But, in this case, you really shouldn't.
