Prescription pill addicts and wordslingers in the Who’s Afraid of Virginia Wolfe vein, John Maringouin’s shut in parents live on the brink of death under a mountain of cat shit torturing each other in the New Orleans suburbs. The filmmaker shows up on Easter Sunday for a visit after twenty five years and becomes catalyst for an all out war. –IMDb
Madness in the American South, with pill poppers and pimps making up a small domestic drama that may or may not be a documentary. Very intense, very intriguing.
I hate the marketing campaign for this film (including the lame synopsis here on Mubi) but I found the film itself to be fucking hypnotic. For me there were a few moments when the director's manipulations pushed it too far into the realm of fiction, but most of time it was dead on and totally inspired. I'm anxious to see some more of John Maringouin's stuff.
