Histoire
Laney Brooks appears to have the perfect life as a wife and mother in suburbia. However, beneath her seemingly idyllic existence lies a dark reality. She has stopped taking her medication for an undisclosed mental health condition, replacing it with recreational drugs and engaging in reckless behaviors, including affairs with other men. This lifestyle begins to take a toll on her family life, putting her marriage and children at risk. As the situation becomes increasingly dire, Laney realizes she must make one last desperate attempt at redemption to save herself and her family.
Résumé
'I Smile Back' is a gripping drama about Laney Brooks (played by Sarah Silverman), a woman who appears to have it all - a loving husband, two beautiful children, and a spacious home in the suburbs. However, as the film's title suggests, appearances can be deceiving. The movie explores Laney's struggle with an unidentified mental health issue that she self-medicates with drugs and reckless behavior, putting her family at risk. Directed by Adam Salky, this 2015 film delves into the darker side of suburban life and serves as a stark reminder that perfection is often just a facade.
