TWOFER is a dark and twisty tale of a woman stranded by the side of the road and the handsome good Samaritan who stops to help her out.
Over the course of this tight under-10-minute short film, the audience’s assumptions about these characters peel like an onion to reveal darker and rotten layers. Kaylyn and Mark aren’t strangers at all. They planned this rendezvous. As each reveals a dead body in their trunks, a more sinister truth emerges.
