A Broken Everything

Daniel Groff hasn’t seen his abusive father in years. When he learns that the man has died and left him his ramshackle house, Daniel discovers that he was obsessively writing a bizarre detective story/new age manifesto. So Daniel does the only thing that feels right, he decides to finish it. This sets Daniel onto a surreal creative journey where he encounters a woman who might be his wife, a river in the basement of his new home, an addiction to psychedelic berries, a private eye who can't figure out what to investigate, and a series of violent short stories he wrote when he was a child. Part absurdist nightmare, part coming-of-age comedy, A Broken Everything by Eddie Wright is a multi-layered, fast-paced, and darkly funny exploration of the cycles of domestic violence told through the fractured perspective of a young man trying to complete the work of the father he does not understand.
