About this film+

A private eye gets caught in a web of corruption and murder while investigating a water scam in 1930s Los Angeles. The film explores themes of greed and hidden family secrets through a hard-boiled lens. The visual style uses golden sunlight and deep shadows to create a classic noir feel.
