Fray (2012)

Fray: Directed by Geoff Ryan. With Bryan Kaplan, Marisa Costa, Catherine Johnson, Wes Harris. Just back from combat, a young Marine veteran faces a new battle to find purpose in the mundane existence of civilian life while struggling through a shattered economy while burdened by the physical and emotional scars of war.

“Director Geoff Ryan does a fine job with this quiet, observant character study. Itu0026#39;s a slow and deliberate film that allows us to discover moments as the characters in the film do. Another plus is a terrific, understated yet bold performance by Bryan Kaplan as the angst filled protagonist. One of the joys of indie films is that they highlight character development through observance and raw honesty.”
