Set in Manhattan's fashionable Chelsea district, amidst the neighborhood's large and varied gay population, THE EVENT is an intricately structured inquiry into one man's death that becomes a celebration of his life. Parker Posey stars as a District Attorney investigating the suspicious suicide of a young man, who must conduct a series of interviews with his loved ones. The ensuing flashbacks reconstruct the man's life and his various relationships with friends and family. When the true (and surprising) circumstances of his death are revealed, they prove to be far less important than how he lived, how he loved, and how he was loved.
