Tempest

A sobering mid-life crisis fuels dissatisfaction in Philip Dimitrius, to the extent where the successful architect trades his marriage and career in for a spiritual exile on a remote Greek island where he hopes to conjure meaning into his life - trying the patience of his new girlfriend and angst-ridden teenage daughter.

Tempest, directed by Paul Mazursky, was a big-budget production with mainstream actors like John Cassavetes and Gena Rowlands. Despite its artistic ambitions, its scale and studio backing disqualify it from being considered independent.
