Chuck & Buck
When does a close friend become too close?
Directed by Miguel Arteta
Produced by Blow Up Pictures, Flan de Coco Films
A provocative, darkly comedic exploration of arrested development and obsessive love that blurs the line between friendship and stalking, told with uncomfortable intimacy and psychological complexity.
Chuck and Buck are childhood best friends whose lives have taken very different paths. While Chuck moved away and now has a real life, Buck stayed behind and developed a dangerous fixation—on Chuck's life.
