Anna’s Hands follows three friends on their way to a party in rural Ontario. The film aims to capture the beginning of the end of a lifelong friendship between three young twenty-somethings - Anna, Liam and Miles - entering adult life. On the way to the party, they have a series of seemingly banal conversations that reveal great truths about their relationships. Hidden underneath what the characters say about the books they read, the nature of love, older siblings, and the powerful implications behind the phrase “thank you” is a tale of three friends ultimately falling out of love with each other.
