September Song

Everything seems fine and in good order in Kurt’s life – nice house, loving wife, pretty daughter. Yet when 17-year-old Marie comes home from camp obviously in love, paternal jealousy is not the only thing that clouds the final days of summer. For, in his daughter’s boyfriend, Kurt recognizes his own son – the one he was never supposed to meet. That, in any event, was how the mysterious Vera had arranged things years ago, after a little fling. Kurt is hard pressed to regain control over reality, which has gone off the rails, and over the emotional mix of incestuous fears and sensual memories, guilty conscience and jealousy.
