Water by the Spoonful
by Quiara Alegría Hudes
directed by Melanie Queponds
Elliot, an Iraq war veteran, struggles to keep his family afloat. Haikumom, an addict in recovery, tries to save strangers from drowning through an online chatroom. Water by the Spoonful moves between the real and online world, proving both spaces have more in common than first meets the eye. This 21st century family drama is a story about redemption, healing, and forgiveness.
Recommended for mature audiences.
