Bewildered
It’s the summer of 1974 and three young adults are temporarily living in Toronto. Immersed in the counterculture zeitgeist, they are discovering themselves, auditioning personas for the adults they will become. A life-altering decision is faced. A film about U.S. military deserters is being made. A fugitive is on the run. In 2022 we catch up with them, now dispersed, Toronto a long ago memory. Regardless, choices made then echo as mysteries are revealed, far-reaching misunderstandings realized. Bewildered is a story about whom we once were and the man or woman life eventually makes of us. There’s also an orphan, a transatlantic voyage, and a dancing backup singer.
