High profile Danish actor Thure Lindhardt, also starring in KEEP THE LIGHTS ON (Tribeca, Spotlight), masterfully breaths life into the role of former art star Lars Olafssen. Unable to paint without inspiration, he accepts a teaching gig at a small-time art school in Eastern Ontario. Somehow he inherits the guardianship of the offbeat town's neighborhood weirdo, Eddie. As their unlikely friendship evolves, Lars uncovers a dark, violent secret about Eddie's nocturnal impulses, and finds himself torn between his duty to his friend and his duty to his art.
