Surreal, searing and sexually charged, Fool for Love, is an explosive tale of love, hate and the dying myths of the Old West. Set in a stark motel room in the Mojave Desert, May and Eddie are a couple bound by a visceral passion that both feeds and devours them. May is hiding out in the motel when Eddie, an old flame and childhood friend, returns after years of being apart and threatens to drag her back into the life from which she has fled. Reality and dream; truth and lies; past and present mingle in a raw and emotional experience.

Family quarrels are bitter things. They don’t go according to any rules. They’re not like aces or wounds, they’re more like splits in the skin that won’t heal because there’s not enough material.
