Dwight Evans is a mysterious outsider whose quiet life on the margins is turned upside down when he returns to his childhood home to carry out an act of vengeance. Proving himself an amateur assassin, he winds up in a brutal fight to protect his estranged family.
Premiering at the Quinzaine in 2013, winning both the festival’s FIPRESCI Prize, and, perhaps best of all, enviable comparisons to the early work of Joel and Ethan Coen, this impeccably lean, mean revenge-thriller from Saulnier (Green Room) announced the arrival of a great new filmmaking talent.
