The cast also includes Jake Raymond, Allan Dobrescu, Hugh Wilson, Rod Keith, Chad Andrews, Nate Oppel, Franklin Davis Jr., Holt McCallany, Lawrene Denkers, Monika Meyer, Joyce Powell, Ballo Harideen, Nathaniel Keith, Eric Schmidt, Sarah Green, Rick Guzman and Maysee McLean.

From the gorgeous opening shot of a person jogging down by a river, streetlights reflected on its dark surface, to the final, restaurant-set sequence, Dunlop creates an atmosphere of unease and subliminal tension.

The rest of the film features the protagonist sitting alone in his apartment, staring at his laptop, or driving around late at night, checking out one seedy back alley after another.

The apartment feels so sparse, while the chilly exterior shots reinforce the coldness that exists within the recluse’s life, underscoring his desperation for some type of connection, especially a girlfriend.
