Red Rocket

Sean Baker goes back to the fringes again. Mikey Saber, an ex-adult film performer, finds himself back in his small Texas hometown, seeking refuge with his ex and her mother. His efforts to reintegrate are complicated by a new fixation on a local girl. It’s a portrait of a man who hasn't grown, set against a landscape that hasn't changed much either.
