Synopsis:
Plagued by a series of apocalyptic visions, a young husband and father questions whether to shelter his family from a coming storm, or from himself.
Curtis LaForche (Michael Shannon) lives in a small Ohio town with his wife Samantha (Jessica Chastain) and six–year-old daughter Hannah, who is deaf.

Movie Info:
Another divisive film from Sundance 2011, Shelter also marks writer-director Jeff Nichols's reunion with his Shotgun Stories star, Michael Shannon. Shannon's work is typically commanding, as is Jessica Chastain's performance as his worried/disbelieving wife. (Wow, I've just realized that Ms. Chastain is quietly put together a knockout series of roles this year. Total Indie Spirit Award in her future?) I recommend letting this film linger on your palette for a while; though it's a bit thematically heavy-handed, the story idea is as strong as the acting. And the film looks gorgeous.
