Buckshot explores the lengths to which we go in order to protect our siblings and ourselves from the past and present. Surprisingly funny at times, Buckshot deals with the realities of abuse as well as common ups and downs of being in relationships.
REVIEWS:
"An exercise in prelude -- it ends precisely where a news story, based on police reports and interviews with rattled neighbors, might begin."
The Stranger
"An exercise in ambiguity, picking apart how years of memories and influences can lead a person to something that, from a distance, might seem insane."
The Stranger
"Buckshot is a slowly widening crack in the door of... consciousness."
