Anthony Saxe is an American filmmaker from Schenectady, New York.  His poignant drama MIRROR LAKE uses its specific setting to reflect the inner lives of the film’s unmoored and disillusioned characters, “I grew up a few hours south of Lake Placid where the story is set; best known for hosting the Winter Olympics.  Like the town itself, the characters are largely defined by relationships and successes that have long since been reduced to memories: they each cling to small and imagined glories of their future.”  The film centers around an injured former athlete who returns to his hometown, where his addictions lead to a growing tension that threatens his best friend's relationship with an immigrant hotel maid.
