Synopsis
I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore (2017) is a dark comedy crime thriller you can watch online on iFILM, written and directed by Macon Blair in his feature debut. Melanie Lynskey plays Ruth, a nurse pushed past her limit. Elijah Wood co-stars as her unhinged but oddly committed neighbor Tony.
Ruth comes home to a burgled apartment. Laptop, pills, and her grandmother's silver spoons — gone. The police log it and move on. So Ruth teams up with Tony and his nunchucks to track the thieves down herself. It starts as a low-stakes neighborhood dispute. It does not stay that way.
The film took the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance 2017, and it earns it — Lynskey carries the whole thing, playing someone exhausted by a world that rewards rudeness and ignores quiet people, right up until she stops being quiet. Stream I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore (2017) on iFILM.
