Overview
Filmmaker and recluse Alex lives in a van. He sets up his camera in rural areas in the US, in the no-man’s land near highways. During a rare visit to his distant mother, she reveals a dark truth hidden since his childhood that threatens to unravel him. Confused and unstable, Alex sets out to confront the looming shadow he has been running from all his life. But as he delves deeper in search of answers, Alex’s grip on reality becomes increasingly more tenuous and before long he finds himself unable to determine right from wrong.
The latest film from director Travis Matthews (Interior. Leather Bar., I Want Your Love) is a disturbing psychological thriller with echoes of Gregg Araki's Mysterious Skin; both an intense portrait of a fractured soul and a pertinent depiction of masculine fragility in modern-day America.
