After a marginal theatrical release and TV showings on the Sundance Channel, Jennifer Elster's assured debut as a writer-director will be remembered long after most indie-films fade into obscurity. It's one of those self-indulgent, angst-ridden, hyper-neurotic New York stories that seem to be a staple among first-time filmmakers (Elster was a 27-year-old Manhattan fashion stylist when she began writing her screenplay in 2001), but Elster--who also stars as Lilli Black, an insecure artist on the eve of her first gallery show--hits all the right notes in her anguished and all-too-human tale of love, loss, and the abject fear of failure. The movie encompasses a complex array of engaging emotions, focusing on Lilli's unlikely but life-affirming romance with Morrison (played by Gale Harold from the acclaimed Showtime series Queer as Folk ), a reclusive writer with obsessive-compulsive disorder. They've both got parental issues (her estranged drug-addict father is dying of AIDS; his parents are suffering through health and financial crises), and Elster does a fine job of developing several other characters who complicate the film's turbulent emotional landscape, and her cast (including herself) is uniformly good. Elster's memorable characters express a broad spectrum of human dysfunction, but their stories are told with appealing humor, refreshing candor and compassionate sincerity. Particles of Truth is ripe for discovery as an overlooked gem that deserves to be seen. --Jeff Shannon A young painter and a writer come together over 24 hours and must confront their past to forge a relationship. Review: Phenomenally done - If you like movies that make you think. If you like movies that leave you with a greater appreciation for life, including your own, then this is definitely the movie for you. It is by no means mainstream and it is very strange. The cinematography is brilliant, the direction is brilliant, the acting is brilliant. Jennifer Elster works all these positions and more and she knows what she is doing. She has a real art form as her craft. Gale Harold, is also, brilliant. His performance leaves you with a chill to the bone and it is is best acting portrayal that has ever been witnessed on TV or film, I should know, I've seen all of his stuff. While strange, this movie really gets at how everyone is messed up and has their own stuff going on. The heightened awareness of your own life that is generated from the watching of this movie is so worth sitting through some of the bizarre uncomfortable parts. Definitely a movie experience that you won't want to miss if you give a crap at all about humanity. Review: surprising indie movie - After seeing trailers of this movie I was interested in it. Jennifer Elster and Gale Harold are portraiing two broken characters who are loaded with many problems due to their family background. This movie shows their collision and how they try to overcome their phobias and fears, Jennifer as Lilly, an artist who fears to fail with everything she does and Gale as Morrison, who drives around in his car and spots people to write about them, who tries to manage his germ-phobia, scrubbing his face till excess with soap ( best scenes with a showercap on ;-)) ). In flashbacks we learn about Lilly's past and present and learn that her father is dying of AIDS, worst she could tell Morrison to whom she fell in love. How these two characters get over their fears and phobias it's well placed in this wonderful indie movie. Watch it you'll like it! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 73 Reviews | ## Images ![Particles of Truth - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51CXXKHTK9L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Phenomenally done *by S***R on July 7, 2013* If you like movies that make you think.

He can convey more story without a single word spoken than most actors can with the entire dictionary on hand. He acts from his soul. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/70106874-particles-of-truth](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/70106874-particles-of-truth) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
