Running time: 80 minutes

The events of April 2nd, 2007, began with a child kicking a soccer ball over a schoolyard fence into Los Angeles, rush hour traffic. This innocent action sets in motion a series of intertwining incidents that eventually results in the deaths of nine people, including three school children. “An Age of Angels.” unfolds in Roshomon-eque fashion as ten characters - in ten monologues - each imaginatively relates their own “unrelated” story. Only the audience has the perspective to see how the escalating events inevitably result in the tragic occurrence.
Mark Soper’s brilliant, Hollywood whodunit, directed by Ines Wurth (“I Miss Communism”).
