House of Sand and Fog | Hitchens Virtual Theatre

Academy Award winners Ben Kingsley (Gandhi) and Jennifer Connelly (A Beautiful Mind) deliver stunning performances as two strangers whose conflicting pursuits of the American Dream lead to a fight for their hopes at any cost. What begins as a struggle over a rundown bungalow spirals into a clash that propels everyone involved toward a shocking resolution. "A surprise ending that will leave you breathless!" (Clay Smith, Access Hollywood)

Synopsis: At a public auction, an Iranian family purchases a house that had belonged to an alcoholic woman who, after her husband left her, couldn't keep up with the mortgage payments. But after losing her home, the woman is obsessed with getting it back, and what begins as a legal battle turns into a very dramatic personal confrontation.
