Program Note
On an extremely rainy night, a soaking young woman knocks on a stranger’s door in an RV park, looking for somewhere to shelter. She is let in by a kind, lonely older man living alone in an RV. Slowly, curiosity and paranoia towards one another consume both, while stranded in a blistering thunderstorm. As questions about each other escalate, the boiling tension leads to an emotional showdown, which may or may not be real.
An impressive feature directorial debut by Indianna Bell and Josiah Allen, You’ll Never Find Me entices audiences right from the start, with anxiety and uncertainty between the two leads in a confined space. Superbly performed by Jordan Cowan as the woman and Brendan Rock as the old man, each question the motives of one other, and their heightened paranoia effectively carries the audience throughout the film, to an unexpected and shocking ending.
