Twenty seven years after his UCLA graduate thesis film Shot Down was banned in his home country and went on to festival acclaim and cult status, writer-director Andrew Worsdale returns with this noir romance set among the marginalised white underclass. The film follows a police investigation into four murders and charts the doomed romance of the outlaw lovers. A deeply romantic, elegiac and universal crime story where the murders are not the point of the movie. By the end of the film you have become complicit witnesses of a powerful, combustible romance and their times together should stay in your mind long after you leave the cinema.
Director: Andrew Worsdale
