Leaving on a trip of what she hopes to be discovery and back to sanity Julia feels that it would lead her to better days ahead and turn her miserable life around. With her embezzling the weekly take at the bingo parlor that she worked at Julia then takes the first plane out to New York City in order to get away from it all: The "Big Apple" New York CityAlone and without a place to stay in the big city,rents in NYC were a lot higher then Cyndi expected, during the Christmas holiday season Cyndi roams the streets of New York until she runs into a friend of her from back in Huston, what a small world, Suzy who now calls herself Alex, Gretchen Krich. Alex gives her the name of a real-estate agent friend of her Athina, Suzanne Savoy, who can get her an apartment at a cut rate price. As things turned even cut-rate prices weren't all that affordable for Julia here in NYC who's embezzled cash was quickly running out on her. Before that she meets in a bar in the Dumbo section of Brooklyn Big Tex, Shanon Weaver, who in him after taken a couple dozen belts of Jack Daniels on the rocks and being almost blind drunk is not turned off by the middle aged and somewhat overweight Julia.

As she then ends up in this sleazy go-go joint alone lost and confused and hoping that she'll finally find herself before the men with the white suites do.P.S Loneliness, which she tried to escape from, followed Julia all the way to NYC. And it was there in the big cold heartless and almost friendless, with the exception of Alex, city that the truth finally hit her.
... View MoreI was very disappointed by this movie and all I could think of was that I wanted the time and money back that I wasted. I can't believe that the Austin Film Society granted Kyle Henry the money to make this "film" that never seemed to go anywhere. Kyle Henry and Cyndi Williams were in attendance and they didn't even seem to know what the movie was about during the q & a session. Kyle stated that Americans are often spoon fed the answers in a film that are merely crap. Well I would have like to have been spoon fed some of that crap because at least those movies have a direction, a definitive ending, and leave the audience with something to think about other than that's an hour of my life I'll never get back.
... View MoreThis is a brilliant film.Kyle Henry is an extremely talented young director.Beautifully shot with a complex storyline, unexpected twists and turns.Unconventional style take the viewer on a wild ride.A totally new take on the classic thriller, done with artistry and whimsy.Acting is transcendent, energetic, outside the box.Never a dull or predictable moment.A MUST SEE! DO NOT MISS! HALLELUJAH! PRAISE THE CINEMA LORD for giving us Kyle Henry.
... View MoreI have included unwanted information about the ending, it's not direct, therefore I don't really know if it is a spoiler or no OK, first of all, I can understand that this movie has such a low rating. But I'm afraid I can't agree with it. The movie is somewhat very different from what people are used to see. I saw this movie at LIFFe which is a film festival held at the city where I live. I wanted to see this movie because it is supposed to be experimental. The film itself has a very minimal approach, which I would blame on the budget. But it's not my job to go into technical specs. The movie takes on a completely different approach, the movie does not answer questions that are raised, this is why it is unique. Some people find it horrible to watch because the movie is somewhat more visual and there is very little dialog. The movie leaves everything to your imagination and along the way it gives some small hints which may steer you. I really loved the ambient that the movie creates, the sound scape was great. If you wish to see a movie that obeys no logic and obeys no formula for making a movie, I think this is what you should go and see. It is an experiment more than is a film.Rating 7/10
