Wendy J. Fox in conversation with Ted O'Connell- The Last Supper

The Last Supper follows three months in the chaotic life of Amanda, a middle-aged stay-at-home mother, desperate for something more than the world of her suburban home. After failed attempts at entrepreneurship in multi-level marketing and social media, now she simply lives in terror of what she will make for dinner. Consumed by her failures, her illusory stability collapses when the cracks in her marriage finally split so wide she sees a path to reclaim her own creative and economic agency.
