Rare Objects is a story originally set in the Great Depression, focusing on Maeve Fanning, a first-generation Irish immigrant who was raised by a widow's mother. She is forced to lead a double life thanks to a penchant for unusual men, and bootleg gin, forcing her into living a double life and winding up in a psychiatric facility. There, she bonds with another troubled young woman who desires the same freedoms she does. When she leaves, Maeve finds herself a job catering to the wealthiest residents of Boston in an antique store, before encountering the same woman she shared her life with in the psychiatric hospital. From there, their lives become intertwined. The movie has been brought forward from the Great Depression to present day New York.

The screenplay has been written and adapted by Holmes & Phaedon A. Papadopoulos, while the production team includes Holmes, Jordan Yale Levine, Jordan Beckerman and Jesse Korman of Yale Productions, Shaun Sanghani of SSS Entertainment and Mark Maxey of Rolling Pictures. Executive producers include John Wollman, Sabine Stener, Lee Broda, Joel Michaely, Jason Kringstein, Matt Parker, Carly Hugo and IFC Productions.
