The short dramatic film BALL AND VASE follows an ailing professor and magician named Ed Coleman during the holidays. He is a 92-year-old, widowed World War II veteran who lives alone in a small apartment in Hoboken, N.J. He has been all but forgotten, but Ed has one thing that keeps him going - an upcoming visit by his grandson on Christmas. When a change in those plans finds Ed alone at a local pub he used to visit with his late wife, he discovers one last opportunity to reconnect with the world. BALL AND VASE stars actor, director and playwright Austin Pendleton as Ed Coleman.
