On Golden Pond
by Ernest Thompson
Every summer Norman Thayer and his wife Ethel return to their house
on Golden Pond in Maine. Faces come and go - much like the loons and
their chicks out on the lake - but the rhythm of life remains the
same. When estranged daughter Chelsea turns up for Norman's 80th birthday,
however, things look set to change. Chelsea and partner Bill are heading
for Europe and want to leave behind Billy, Bill's 13 year-old son.
In the weeks that follow, an unlikely, yet charming, friendship forms
between the acid-witted Norman and street-wise Billy, but as the time
comes for Billy to leave Golden Pond some old differences have yet
to be resolved…
Directed by Stefan Escreet.
