AROUND THE BEND teams up the dream cast of Michael Caine (Henry Lair), Christopher Walken (Turner), Josh Lucas (Jason), and Jonah Bobo (Zack) as the ultimate patriarchy, four generations of men in a family that has been torn apart for thirty years.
They travel in Turner's bruised and battered VW Bus, blasting music out of an eight-track-tape player, trying to maintain their sanity for the sake of young Bobo, who is the only one seemingly excited about the journey.
Written and directed by first-time filmmaker Jordan Roberts, AROUND THE BEND is a poignant drama of fathers and sons, of family secrets, of running away, and just maybe of forgiveness.
