Thom Fitzgerald brings his award-winning play to the screen in
this comedy that’s simultaneously deeply moving and uproariously funny. Oscar
winners Olympia Dukakis and Brenda Fricker are Stella and Dot, aging lovers who
have long shared a peaceful life together in their seaside home. But everything
changes when Dot’s uptight granddaughter shows up with a police escort to bring
her to a retirement home. Stella soon stages a breakout, and the devoted duo
hit the road for Canada, where they can legally marry. With equal parts humor
and grace, Cloudburst explores
life, death, and love through the eyes of a beautifully unconventional couple.


“The film is not just laugh-out-loud funny, it's pee-your-pants funny...truly as touching and original as it is hilarious.”  - Michael Hawrysh, 2b Magazine
