New York City
A mix of tragedy and comedy, L. Pontius’ Umbrella is a story about the choices we make to relieve the loneliness and despair of living in a big city. Two strangers on a rooftop – one a peeping Tom, the other a cutter – try to find common ground. But what began as an act of kindness turns into a war of wills as taboos and secrets are revealed and dreams fall apart.
