Synopsis
Taking its title from the cognitive science term, Pattern Recognition examines the human propensity to find and give meaning to patterns in everyday life — whether they are actually there or not. At an art gallery, in an old French château, and on a peaceful beach at sunset, our characters encounter things they become convinced have profound meaning for their lives. But heeding those messages and turning them into action can lead to some disappointing — and often ridiculous — surprises.
Served as a full meal or à la carte.
