A stranger turns up in a Brunswick County pizzeria and endears himself with the locals. But to John, these locals are not fitting into the mystery man’s stereotypes, they are well read by any definition and well versed in the great American novels and European philosophers, each have a favorite and pick a moniker based on their authors’ name. As John finds his way into the ‘family’ it becomes clear he has a motive behind his travels and did not just stumble into Patronies Pizza searching for a job… Cimone Beauvoir confronts John wondering, “Who are you John Galt? and what are you doing here in Holden Beach, North Carolina?”

Short Before the Feature: Summer Vacation // Peter Campbell :: A boy and his masked friend live in a house in a white void.
