THE STORY: Thanksgiving, 1970: The Cowboys and Packers are on TV, John Gary's on the hi-fi, and friends are gathered for their traditional American feast. Members of the Greatest Generation now settled into conventional marriages and predictable careers, they are vaguely aware of the world moving on and away from themand that something is coming for them. An unexpected call from a world-travelling old friend suddenly makes them confront all the choices they never knew they had, and that part of themselves that has died along the way. Based on the short story by Evan S. Connell, THE PALACE OF THE MOORISH KINGS asks us which terms of surrender we must accept in order to belong, and what we must abandon to stay free.
