Norval Greenwood, a privileged man-child arrives at the beautiful and remote coastal cabin of his estranged father. He quickly discovers that not only is dad a jerk, but he also has a shady past that is rushing to catch up with both of them. Now, hundreds of miles from his cushy comfort zone, Norval must battle with demons, both real and perceived, in order to reconnect with a father he barely knows.
The film is written by Toby Harvard (The Greasy Strangler), based on a story idea from Ant Timpson (The ABCs of Death), and is directed by Timpson. In addition to Wood, the film features a cast that includes Stephen McHattie (Watchmen), Garfield Wilson (The Man in the High Castle), Martin Donovan (Tenet), Michael Smiley (The World’s End) and Simon Chin (Killing Eve).
Harvard is producing the film alongside Laura Tunstall, Emma Slade, Mette-Marie Kongsved, Katie Holly and Daniel Bekerman, with Lia Buman, Tim Headington, and Timpson set as executive producer.
