Yard Work

In "Yard Work," 88-year-old Judge Herman Calvert retreats to his rural Wisconsin lake cabin after the loss of his beloved wife, Marie. Seeking solace, he finds his sanctuary overrun by an invasive vine, Persicaria perfoliata, which threatens to destroy the cherished memories and the life he once knew. As the judge grapples with his grief and the encroaching plant, he realizes that he must confront this invasive force before it claims everything he has left. Acclaimed screenwriter David Koepp weaves a tale of loss, nature, and resilience in this gripping original story.
