World premiering at the Cannes Film Festival, TANGLES is a moving animated adaptation of Canadian cartoonist Sarah Leavitt’s acclaimed graphic memoir. Sarah, a young queer artist and activist living in 1990s San Francisco, reluctantly returns to the conservative small town and eccentric family she left behind when her mother, Midge, is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. As Midge’s vibrant personality and memories gradually disappear, Sarah must navigate complicated family dynamics, the painful realities of caregiving, and what it means to become the daughter her mother now needs.
