Tyler Riggs’ Florida-set feature debut traces the intersecting fates of an aspiring musician, a seductive hustler and an ex-con adjusting to life on the outside.

There’s indeed a taut, tensely intimate little drama here, waiting to be chiseled out from the extraneous plotting and thesis-positing. Those flaws stem primarily from the character of Brandon , the recovering criminal whose storyline feels airdropped in from another — albeit not uninteresting — movie altogether.

His lurching trajectory collides with that of the central couple in a third-act contrivance that breaks the film’s languorous spell. Meanwhile, an attempt to impose some greater cosmic meaning on the story via Brandon’s drawling, fortune-cookie-philosophical voiceover is a glaring rookie mistake — a lack of trust in the movie’s images to speak for themselves.
