Beautiful Cinematography...haunting atmosphere. Contextually it's a visual metaphor for the current slow burn economic apocalypse.

I remember stopping in "Kay-Ro" many times with my family as a kid....it sure has changed...superb use of location.

Great opening scene. The actor's voice and black and white scenery pulled me in. It made me watch to the end to see what happened. I'm surprised this type of work was shot in the midwest. Tasha
