Brother sees estranged siblings return to their childhood home when their abusive older brother’s car is found submerged in a lake. While they grapple with haunting memories and unresolved trauma, clues suggest their brother might still be alive. Chad Rook, Rebecca Roberts, Kurt Szarka, Tanya Jade and Ennis Esmer star.

Also on the Artist View slate is The Neon Highway, featuring Beau Bridges, Rob Mayes and Sam Hennings.
