Sortie de Route

Crystal V. Lesser
France, 2014, 14 min.

In French with English subtitles.

What do a reluctant henchman and a nightclub singer have in common? Few words are spoken between these two disillusioned characters, as they drive toward their destinies. Words aren't needed to describe what they already know awaits them at the end of their journey. Sortie de Route (Dead End), a short film written, directed, and produced by French/American Crystal V. Lesser, is a sensitive portrait of those characters, heading down the road to something neither can escape.

Category: Drama.
