Werewolf
Directed by Ashley McKenzie
Produced by Grassfire Films
A bleak, intimate portrait of two addicts trapped in economic and personal desperation, bound together by need and codependency.
Blaise and Nessa are outcast methadone users in their small town. Each day they push a rusty lawnmower door-to-door begging to cut grass. Nessa plots an escape, while Blaise lingers closer to collapse. Tethered to one another, their getaway dreams are kept on a suffocatingly short leash.
