“beauty. love. madness. exile.”
When twenty-four-year-old Jae is released from prison for killing her mother, she returns to her childhood home in small-town Ridgecrest. The desire to go anywhere but there prompts her to agree to join her brother on a road trip out to Death Valley - which results in getting them hopelessly lost in the most stunning, but unforgiving topographical terrain on the planet.
A stark, unforgiving landscape mirrors a soul adrift. This film feels like a slow descent into desperation, where the vast, empty desert becomes a character itself, amplifying the characters' internal struggles and the chilling reality of their choices.
