Male enough to attract a dozen women... not man enough to be faithful to one!

Drama

Ralph and Annabell Willart are a feuding couple who are constantly bickering over their worthless, good-for-nothing son Berry-Berry. When Berry-Berry begins yet another meaningless love affair, this time with an older woman named Echo O’Brien, he really gets his parents at each others’ throats.

VIBE

A deeply uncomfortable, yet compelling, look at familial strife and the destructive nature of obsession. It feels like watching a slow-motion car crash you can't look away from, steeped in a palpable sense of dread.
