Synopsis

"The American dream sucks."

A semi-autobiographical tale about the American dream gone wrong, LYMELIFE is set in the late 70s and centres on two families living on Long Island, New York. The film is a portrayal of the downward spiral of two families from tangled relationships, real estate problems and an outbreak of Lyme's disease that strikes a small suburban community.

Winner of the International Critics Awards at the Toronto Film Festival.
