A pampered dog named Trouble must learn to live in the real world, while trying to escape from his former owner’s greedy children.
From a screenplay by Shia LaBeouf, based on his own experiences, award-winning filmmaker Alma Har’el brings to life a young actor’s stormy childhood and early adult years as he struggles to reconcile with his father through cinema and dreams. Fictionalizing his childhood’s ascent to stardom, and subsequent adult crash-landing into rehab and recovery, Har’el casts Noah Jupe and Lucas Hedges as Otis Lort, navigating different stages in a frenetic career. LaBeouf takes on the daring and therapeutic challenge of playing a version of his own father, an ex-rodeo clown and a felon. Artist and musician FKA Twigs makes her feature-film debut, playing neighbor and kindred spirit to the younger Otis in their garden-court motel home. Har’el’s feature narrative debut is a one-of-a-kind collaboration between filmmaker and subject, exploring art as medicine and imagination as hope.
When drunken and depressed divorcee Tom falls over his second-story banister to his death, he unknowingly awakens in the afterlife to find things haven’t changed too much – that is, until Angie, a District Ghost Manager, arrives and rules Tom’s death a suicide. Tom is told he will have to remain in his home until the date of his ghost trial to determine if he will be sent to heaven or hell. The kicker comes when Angie tells him that things don’t look good for his redemption because good and bad marks have been kept on him since he was born, and he is running a major deficit. One thing that gives Tom hope, though, is that the accounting of the good and the bad continues in the afterlife, all the way up until his trial.
