Directed by Aaron Schimberg • Arthouse • 2019 • US • English
Starring Jess Weixler, Adam Pearson, Charlie Korsmo

In Aaron Schimberg’s brilliantly oddball tragicomedy, Jess Weixler plays a movie star “slumming it” in an outré art-horror film being shot in a semi-abandoned hospital. Cast opposite her is a gentle-natured man with a severe facial deformity (Adam Pearson, “A Different Man”). As their relationship evolves, questions arise around cinematic notions of beauty, representation, and exploitation.
