Fragments (2008)

.

”We trust in where things belong. Everything has a place. And believing in that makes us innocent. And through the days under the same sky, we hope, dream, and laugh.”

It was just an ordinary day in dinner. And then a shooter entered, shot several people dead, wounded others, and took his own life. Somehow the words “You are lucky – some kind of lucky” is of little solice to the survivors, those who witnessed the carnage.

The after effects, post traumatic stress, guilt, despair, loneliness, and faith take hold of the witnesses in different ways until each finds their own epiphany in the aftermath.

The masterful cast includes Forest Whitaker, Kate Beckinsale, Guy Pearce, Dakota Fanning, Jeanne Tripplethorn, Jennifer Hudson, Embeth Davidtz, Troy Garity, Josh Hutcherson, Jackie Earle Haley, Robin Weigert, Tim Guinee, James Legros.

Directed by Rowan Woods.

Run time: 1 hour, 36 minutes

Rated R for violent content, sexuality and language.
