A Behanding in Spokane

A mysterious stranger is on the hunt and two bungling crooks along with one affable hotel receptionist are caught up in his dangerous machinations. Carmichael ( think Captain Ahab meets Dennis Hopper) brings audience into his obsessive search for what has been missing from his life since childhood. Another dazzlingly macabre tale from McDonagh, Behanding slices open the roots of fanaticism and lays open the need to be “whole” again and the contempt we have for outsiders in a post-911 America.
