The Passion of Darkly Noon

Deep forest, late fall. An axe rings. A traumatized young man emerges from the wilderness, collapsing into the care of a free-spirited woman and her taciturn husband. His repressed desires soon surface with dangerous consequences. Philip Ridley's florid nightmare plays like a Southern Gothic fever dream.
