In The Unconsoled we follow the pianist Ryder who arrives in a town completely unprepared and without any knowledge of the itinerary and follow him as he is dragged through the story and as he tries to not disappoint the towns citizens which expect him to solve the towns grave problems. Whatever they may be. Not a single scene is played out fully, together with Ryder we are dragged to the next scene and we are left in the dark.

This sounds bad but The Unconsoled is wonderfully written and shines with a dry humor.
