About Concussion

A poignant sexual examination of Abby (Robin Weigert), a forty-something married, wealthy, lesbian housewife who, after suffering a blow to the head from her son's baseball, walks around every corner of her suburban life to confront a mounting desire for something else. She takes on a new project and purchases a pied-à-terre in Manhattan. Walking around the city streets reminds Abby what it feels like to be sexy, and her pent-up libido shakes off its inhibitions. Her new-found desire though is not a take-home item, so Abby inaugurates a double life as a high-end escort. Palpably sensual and deliciously contained, Concussion is a keen observation of the complicated contours of midlife crisis. Rated R, 1 hr. 33 min.
