Synopsis
Fireflies in the Garden (2008) is an American family drama directed by Dennis Lee — watch it online on iFILM. Ryan Reynolds, Willem Dafoe, Julia Roberts, Emily Watson and Hayden Panettiere head a cast navigating decades of damage inside a single family.
When Lisa dies in a car accident, the loss doesn't bring the family together — it tears the lid off everything they'd been carefully ignoring. Her son Michael, a writer in a faltering marriage, starts putting his childhood on paper. Nobody wants that book written. His father Charles, played by Dafoe with an unsettling stillness, least of all. The story moves between past and present, slowly assembling why this family is the way it is.
This is the kind of quiet, uncomfortable drama that rewards patience. It doesn't explain its characters — it just shows what they do under pressure, and leaves the rest to the audience. Stream Fireflies in the Garden online on iFILM.
