Synopsis:
From all outward appearances,
Pippa Lee (ROBIN WRIGHT PENN) leads a charmed existence. She
is the devoted wife of an accomplished publisher (ALAN ARKIN)
thirty years her senior, the proud mother of two grown
children, and a trusted friend and confidant to all who cross
her path. But as Pippa dutifully follows her husband to a new
life in a Connecticut retirement community, her idyllic
world and the persona she has built over the course of her
marriage will be put to the ultimate test.
In truth,
looks are deceiving, and this picture-perfect woman has seen
more than her fair share of turmoil in her youth. Embarking on
a bittersweet journey of self-discovery, accompanied by a new,
strange and soulful acquaintance (KEANU REEVES), Pippa must
now confront both her volatile past and the hidden resentment
of her seemingly perfect life in order to find her true sense
of self.
By turns
wry, humorous, and moving, THE PRIVATE LIVES OF PIPPA LEE
presents the complex portrait of the many lives behind a
single name.
