“The greatest movie buddies of all time are back!”

Comedy

During a high-profile Mafia testimony case in Riverside County, a hired killer checks into a hotel room near the courthouse, while his depressed neighbor contemplates suicide over marital problems.

VIBE

A darkly comedic and absurd journey into loneliness and existential dread. This film feels like a quirky, character-driven dive into the bizarre connections people make, wrapped in a 70s aesthetic.
