After Circles

Synopsis:
War! Hotel? Help! Locked away, three women must choose five words to help them escape. With freedom so close, will they survive, or will their past resurface, and imprison them forever? After Circles explores complex human relationships posing the audience questions about right and wrong actions and challenges us to take a new look at the politics of violence, a theme that becomes more apt every time we turn on our TVs.
