I give it at least a couple of stars for trying to be creative. This is a very low budget film, but it's trying to convey mystery and a sort of magical mysticism, so if you have some patience, it's worth a look.

Plot summary
An aspiring trapeze artist discovers a cryptic letter her recently deceased father once wrote directing her to a gold mine in a remote California desert. Upon arriving in a mysterious town, she finds herself at the gates of "The Beautiful Place," a house occupied by retired vaudeville stars Jimmy and Dixie Riggs. As she gets to know the eccentric couple, she discovers her words were directing her to a reward far more valuable than gold.

Low budget but not awful
A Must For Sophie Lowe Fans
This film, while not perfectly written, is an emotional beautiful study of life and loss, accentuated by the understated acting by the rising star of "Blow The Man Down," Sophie Lowe. Her presence gives a luminescence to the earlier scenes as the story slowly unfolds. Add in the fine acting work by Charlotte Rampling and Willie Nelson, and the dreamy lighting and mood achieved by documentary veteran Lian Lunson, and you have all the elements of a impressive feature debut.
Do not watch this
This movie's plot is all over the place. Besides being uninteresting, the main character's quest has no bigger picture. The supporting characters are loosely related to one another, with no clear sense of why interactions need to happen. The worst scene is the trapeze scene. I have seen zero budget short films on YouTube executed better than this. This film goes to show that wealth needs to be redistributed so that people with very great ideas can invest in them, while people with not so great ideas don't have the means to execute them poorly. I hope the filmmakers see this and create something better. I appreciate the effort!
