In an interview with Deadline, the leggy star detailed the background of the drama film: 'It’s a movie about loss, in a certain way, in that we lose our patriarch.' 

The independent movie - set for release in the US on March 30 - focuses on the relationship between Suzanne and her son Nicholas (played by Chris O'Dowd) following the death of a family patriarch.

'From my point of view, my character [Suzanne] felt for some reason that he would somehow inherit the role of patriarch, and is very disappointed to find that that natural succession doesn’t take place, and that kind of kills him.'

'He has this relationship with his mother, which is at times very intimate and beautiful, but also very difficult because he thinks the role of patriarch would almost make him the man of the house in her eyes, and she doesn’t necessarily see that in him.'

Comparing this role with her work on previous films, Andie said: 'The process was unique for me, and I’ve been doing this for a long time, but I’ve never had the opportunity to work in this way, and I am just so grateful that I was given this opportunity to play a complex character.'

'I’ve been waiting for something like this for such a long time. It was so delicate, the way that we worked, and you see in the very beginning of the movie, my character is bold, and beautiful, and dynamic, and sexy, and secure, and loving.'
