Dérive

Written By David Schnitzer

Guided by posthumous instructions to release her ex-wife’s ashes, a reclusive book publisher embarks on a surrealist odyssey (a dérive) across NYC. Experiencing a series of spontaneous and whimsical chance encounters along the way, she is challenged to open up and engage the world anew. This tender, queer-spirited comedy blends melancholy, absurdity, and charm, inviting us to find connection, meaning, and a little magic in life’s unpredictable detours.
