HEYSOOS

Cinemavixion Review

Rob Santana's 2014 film "Heysoos" offers a darkly comedic and provocative take on faith, desperation, and survival. The narrative centers on a drug dealer, whose life implodes after a botched deal leaves him fleeing from both the law and his former associates. Seeking refuge in a remote wooded area after a car crash, he unexpectedly finds himself in the care of two devout, albeit fanatical, women. Their profound misinterpretation of his identity—mistaking him for Jesus Christ—becomes his unlikely lifeline. The film delves into the protagonist's manipulation of this delusion for his own survival, exploring themes of deception and the blurred lines between salvation and exploitation. While the local data provides a concise plot, the external data enriches this with the director and cast, painting a clearer picture of the creative forces behind this unusual premise. "Heysoos" is a film that challenges conventional morality, prompting reflection on belief systems and the extreme measures one might take when cornered.
