Iris
After a difficult ballet performance, Iris sees that her career as a dancer is over. Her roommate is in denial about it, her boyfriend doesn’t understand ballet, and the other man in her life may be the worst thing to ever happen to her. Unable to see any good version of the future, Iris just might make every mistake and bad choice that she can.
In the minimalist tradition of Raymond Carver and Hemingway, from behind-the-scenes at a world-class ballet company to behind the bar at a music venue in Lower Manhattan, IRIS is an incisive portrait of a young woman looking for passion in a city she can barely afford.
