À propos de ce film

Returning to the middle-class neighborhood where he grew up, Henry Poole (Luke Wilson of OLD SCHOOL) chooses to live in indulgent isolation. Real life, however, refuses to cooperate with his plans. Nosy neighbors interrupt him with curious visits and prying questions. Then the situation escalates as a stain on Henry's stucco wall is seen to have miraculous powers. His last-ditch hideout becomes a shrine when his backyard turns into an arena for passionate debate about faith and destiny. Seeking anonymous oblivion, cynical Henry Poole instead finds himself right at the center of the human comedy. Radha Mitchell (SILENT HILL), Adriana Barraza (DRAG ME TO HELL), George Lopez (TV's GEORGE LOPEZ), and Cheryl Hines (TV's CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM) co-star in this comedic drama about a disillusioned man who goes hiding in placid suburbia only to discover he cannot escape the forces of hope.
