Drama

Ronnie is a young white male, struggling with the pressures of life. He’s unemployed, rejected from the military for being mentally unstable, and lives at home with his ailing and nagging mother. Ronnie finds an outlet for his frustration online. The alt-right community gives him a place to belong and absolves his personal responsibility.

VIBE

This film feels like a suffocating descent into online radicalization. It's a raw, uncomfortable character study of a young man lost in frustration, finding toxic belonging in the digital ether. The atmosphere is heavy and deeply unsettling.
