Finding the Way Back to Yourself
Welcome to the Fishbowl, directed and written by Sheryl Glubok MFA ’05, premiered at the Bentonville Film Festival.
Reports Red Carpet Crash:
"At its best, Welcome to the Fishbowl speaks directly to an experience that many women know intimately. The gradual disappearance of a person into the roles of mom and partner until they are no longer an Elizabeth but just mom, hun, or whatever name someone else has assigned them. Then comes the moment, through an empty nest, a divorce, or a death, when those roles fall away, and they discover they no longer know who they are without them. Glubok’s message is clear and genuinely moving: it is never too late to reclaim yourself, and the only reason to choose one life over another is because that is what you truly want. That conviction comes through in every frame, giving the film warmth and sincerity that carry it through its rougher patches."
