Shadow People
in California’s San Fernando Valley, they pass their days killing the hours with work and a growing drug habit. The “white noise” is interrupted when their feelings of condescension and mistrust from their landlords, Steven and Deena, are confirmed. Dan and Gretchen find common ground, briefly, with their desire to teach their landlords a lesson in humility and prove to them that money and real estate cannot secure a happy and honest relationship. Gretchen begins her seductive manipulation of Steven while Daniel engineers the game from behind the scenes. The conflicts between and within the two couples become more and more poignant as the truths are revealed in the shadows. Daniel’s drug habit reaches a breaking point as does his tolerance for the game being played. Gretchen’s torment grows from her guilt over manipulating Steven and her lack of closure from a horrific event in her and Daniel’s past. Both couples must decide whether they will continue playing roles for one another, or face the reality of who they are and whether or not they will continue together or face their futures apart. |
