Synopsis: A small town, multiple murders, and one ugly secret. Sheriff Will Dennehy tries to find the truth while haunted by past mistakes. Following the only lead he has, the twisted story of two best friends, Jack Malone and Kyle Campisi unfolds.

It's tale of two best friends, from the same background, who grow up to very different worlds. Jack is a physically and sexually abused poor boy, whose life has been nothing but hardship. Kyle is a vulgar and apathetic manipulator, who had the good fortune of his family getting out and growing up privileged. Six years later, they come together for one pivotal night to make a choice that will change their lives forever... and someone pays with their life.

It's a twisted tale told by the last man to see Jack before the bodies started piling up. Slade, a widower, shop owner, who tried to mentor Jack as his own son, fervently tries to dissuade Dennehy from his target. All things point to Jack, but did he really do it?

    Creative Notes:
    Shot on Super 16mm, with no crew. I used an Bolex camera, clip on lights for lighting and my wife holding a mic. Looped due to camera noise. Edited on a G5 Mac with Final Cut. This film was made with passion and grit. Although a thriller, it's just a vehicle to expose the horrendous effects of child abuse.
