Trama
Kathy Nicolo, a troubled woman living in San Francisco, California, loses her house to foreclosure due to an administrative error. She becomes determined to get it back and moves into her friend's place while plotting her next steps. Meanwhile, Behrani, an Iranian immigrant, purchases the same house at auction, intending to renovate it and sell for profit to secure his son's education. When Kathy learns that a family is living in 'her' house, she becomes desperate and turns to Lester Burdon, a sheriff's deputy, for help. Lester, drawn to Kathy's plight, begins an intimate involvement with her while also harassing the Behrani family to vacate the property. The tension escalates as both families refuse to back down, culminating in a tragic event that irrevocably changes all their lives.

Riepilogo
Based on the novel by Andrew Dalzell, 'House of Sand and Fog' (2003) is a gripping drama directed by Vadim Perelman. Set in San Francisco, the film explores themes of immigration, mental illness, desperation, and the destructive power of obsession. It revolves around two protagonists whose lives intertwine through a shared tragedy: Kathy Nicolo, a troubled woman struggling with depression and addiction, and Behrani, an Iranian immigrant seeking a better life for his family. The film was nominated for multiple awards, including an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress (Shohreh Aghdashloo). While the plot is centered around a property dispute, it delves into deeper issues of identity, loss, and resilience.
