Howard Spence has seen better days. Once a big Western movie star, he now drowns his disgust for his selfish and failed life with alcohol, drugs and young women. If he were to die now, nobody would shed a tear over him, that's the sad truth. Until one day Howard learns that he might have a child somewhere out there...

VIBE

A dusty, introspective journey through regret and the fading light of a once-bright star. It's a quiet, character-driven drama that feels like a long, slow exhale, pondering second chances and the ghosts of the past.
