A Pocketful of Rye
Synopsis
A young Scottish doctor, Carroll, finds himself adrift in a Swiss clinic, where the stories of his patients and the quiet moments of his own life begin to coalesce into a sense of purpose. A Pocketful of Rye is a quietly powerful meditation on vocation, loss, and the slow building of hope.
