Lake Water follows two small town high school seniors, Iris and James, who become estranged after their best friend suddenly commits suicide. Then one “crapping pathetic Friday night,” James calls Iris in distress, and she meets him at the lake. Out on a dock, surrounded by green water, the two friends untangle the painful events of their past and struggle to face the limits of their lives. Full of humor and hope, Lake Water sheds some light on an all-too-common small-town American tragedy.
