Synopsis

Director Jill Sprecher's critically-acclaimed film assembles an all-star, ensemble cast in a fresh and whimsical look at the invisible, everyday and destiny-shaping miracles that we've come to call "fate." In five distinct New York tales, the lives of seemingly disparate characters - a public defender (Matthew McConaughey, Reign of Fire) whose life suddenly mirrors that of the criminals he prosecutes, a college professor (John Turturro, Mr. Deeds, Barton Fink) facing a poignant crossroads, an envious businessman (Alan Arkin, America's Sweethearts) seeking revenge on a compulsively cheerful co-worker, an optimistic cleaning woman (Clea Duvall, Girl, Interrupted) searching for miracles in theaftermath of a tragic accident and, lastly, a woman (Amy Irving, Traffic) forced to face her husband's infidelity due to an untimely return of a lost wallet - are interwoven to create a touching tapestry that's warmed the hearts of moviegoers and critics across the globe. Playful and poignant, 13 CONVERSATIONS ABOUT ONE THING is "luminous and strangely beautiful" (Emma Forrest, VANITY FAIR).
