I first thought it was a Canadian film. I had no idea until I read the credits that it was filmed entirely on location in Austin, Texas. This film is quite a gem and treasure about the relationships between a father and son, Frank and Zak Nelson, after the suicide death of the family matriarch. Zak blames himself as does Frank for her death. The father and son moments in the film are alone worth watching. There is no glamor with this largely unknown cast. They do a brilliant job worthy of awards. Zak becomes withdrawn from his girlfriend and his friends as well as his father. He paints his room black to symbolize his mourning. It isn't until a life-changing experience that determines how to live after a family tragedy.
