Matildas: The World At Our Feet

Directed By Katie Bender Wynn

A re-release of Alyssa Rallo Bennett's debut feature THE PACK. In a legally plausible case, inspired by true events, an ambitious Assistant District Attorney prosecutes a wife and mother (Lucie Arnaz) for murder after her forty-seven-year-old husband dies of lung cancer, potentially caused by her second-hand smoke. The case is further complicated as the DA loops in the woman's twenty-four-year-old son to testify against his mother.
