SPEAKING IN TONGUES

 SPEAKING IN TONGUES

WHEN DID WE BECOME STRANGERS TO ONE ANOTHER?

A masterfully interconnected drama about the relationships between lovers, strangers, and the infinite ways people are entangled.

Pete is married to Jane. Leon is married to Sonja. One night, Pete meets Sonja in a bar, and they go back to a cheap hotel. By chance, on the same night, Leon and Jane do the same.

One couple goes through with it. The other doesn’t.

A lonely man pines for the love of his life who moved on decades ago.

A woman disappears, leaving just a stiletto and a neighbour as the prime suspect. Her husband doesn’t answer the phone.

Speaking in Tongues was adapted for the screen as the multi-award-winning film Lantana in 2001.
