Polecat (2023)

Two trauma-bonded Appalachian kids seek escape from the back country. They move to a small metropolis to drug deal, thanks to a family connect, until they can aspire to something better. When they catch the attention of the local biker gang that runs the territory, chaos ensues. Guns, drugs, violence, and a badass firecracker at the head of it: Polecat. Looking at genuine and modern Southern characters, the complexities in Southern poverty and post-trauma, Polecat means to inspire understanding and adrenaline through every limb and organ.
