From the prolific visionary behind Traffic, Behind the Candelabra, and Magic Mike, Steven Soderbergh presents something completely different: Emma Sheanshang’s The Fears is a wildly funny reminder when facing the abyss, sometimes the only place to turn is to one another.
Every week at a Buddhist center in New York City, a diverse group of fractured souls share a commitment to eccentric yet restorative teachings providing solace from their personal turmoil. When their newest member shows up without knowing the rules, it sets off heated confrontations and deep meditations on how finding peace in the city that never sleeps can be insanely hilarious.
