Dir. Owen Kline, US, 2022, 87 mins. Cast. Daniel Zolghadri, Matthew Maher, Miles Emanuel.
An outlandish take on the standard coming-of-age tale in this clever and unpredictable portrait of a young artist. When anti-hero and teenage cartoonist Robert rejects the comforts of his plush middle-class life and leaves home in a misguided quest for soul, he stumbles upon unwilling teacher and unwitting friend, Wallace, a former low-level comic artist. Bitingly funny with fistfuls of awkward drama and some stellar cameos, the characters, like living caricatures, are cruel, impressive, and deeply unsettling. What’s not to love? This is dark comedy in its inkiest form.
