​

Seven people, attached to each other through blood and coincidence, embark on a series of compulsive journeys that test their relationships, humanity and faith. As they step away from what is dear and familiar to them, forces seen and unseen propel them to examine all that is wondrous about existence itself. In a world of tornadoes and terrorism, volcanoes and vanishings, memories and the mundane Force asks us who we will be when faced with all we cannot control?

 

In Wanderlust seven seemingly unrelated individuals go about their everyday life. A former war reporter, now professor, questions the value of his now secure life; a cartographer yearns to overcome his fear of flying while his brother fixes cars and tries to reconstruct his past; a woman wishes to become a mother and another wishes she never was one. And one young woman desperately bent on escaping her past drives and drives and drives until she drives directly into their lives. Memory and place collide with secrets and admissions to reveal to each of these people how deeply they wish to be elsewhere. But how can they possibly escape who they are when their identities are so entwined with their daily lives? How strong a force is Wanderlust?
