Claddagh

Two sisters have put off deciding until the last possible minute if their mom would have wanted to be buried wearing her favorite necklace, or if she wanted them to keep it for themselves. Irene, sick of making all the decisions, tries to push her sister into making this one. But Shannon is feeling paralyzed by the thought of what her mother would have wanted, and what her future self might want. The pressure mounts as their strange funeral director hovers and presses for a decision. Irene leaves Shannon to decide for herself. Shannon makes the wrong call, and must live out the worst case scenario of her choice.

Directed by Anna Drezen, Claddagh leans on a strong ensemble — Richard Kind, Maya Boudreau, Fran Gillespie — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 0.
