"Whitman, New York: a nice upstate town, the kind you never hear about... You'd get turned in by your neighbours for not separating your trash at the dump. Otherwise, everyone's your friend." Ross and Angie are passing the summer of 1984 in the town of Whitman, when a killer who repeatedly manages to sneak up on people during their most intimate moments upsets the seemingly idyllic town of Whitman. J&G Dryansky create a riveting, sardonic but nonetheless endearing portrait of life in America. Like a modern day Hansel and Gretel, Angie and Ross engage our emotions in the plight of two kids on the cusp of puberty. They are trying to help each other in a world that is Norman Rockwell by day and Edward Hopper by night. Their dilemna and the dread hanging over the town come together in a shocking resolution.
