Description

Henry Wilt's life is a never-ending cycle of disappointment. Repeatedly passed over for promotion, he's stuck in a dead-end job, trying to drum up enthusiasm for literature among a workforce of tradespeople. At home, his wife Eva's boundless energy is matched only by her unpredictability, careening from transcendental meditation to trampolining with equal fervour. As Wilt's job prospects dwindle, his fantasies of revenge against his wife grow more intense, blurring the lines between reality and fantasy. As the days tick by, Wilt's situation becomes increasingly dire. His job is secure, but his personal life is on the brink of collapse. With each passing day, his thoughts turn darker, and the boundaries between reality and his own twisted desires begin to blur. A darkly comedic exploration of the human psyche, Wilt is a gripping tale of a man pushed to the edge by his circumstances.
