Plot Summary
Deep in the foothills of rural Appalachia the paranoid and unpredictable J.T. lives a solitary life of used tires and decaying trailers. Despite his situation, J.T. wins the love of Sara, an innocent young girl alone in the world after losing the last of her family. Together they naively plan for a new life at the beach, operating an old amusement park ride. However, J.T.'s landlord, Mr. Johnston, has other plans for him. He wants to keep J.T. tied to the dying trailer park and under his control, hoping to convince him to join his bizarre lifestyle. As pressure builds on J.T. to face his fear of change and of the outside world, Sara holds onto the hope that they can push forward together and live out their dream.

Thrilling
I found this movie drawing me in and able to keep my attention. Great plot.
How did I miss this in theaters?
Honestly one of the best indie films I've seen in the last few years. Not sure why I didn't hear more about this... saw the release trailer on iTunes in the regular movie trailer section but it didn't make it to my city I guess. Anyway, interesting material and great little dark love story set in the Va. mountains. The actor from Pi was funny and a little scary at the same time. Wonderful cinematography too and it was shot on film which was a surprise in these days of indie filmmakers cheaping out!
