White Dwarf

White Dwarf is a blend of story, documentary, of cinéma and vérité that examines the culture of Hollywood when shooting stars eventually lose their luster. The film chronicles a day (and night) in the life of Gregory, a couch-surfing aspiring actor, his group of 'industry' friends and the false lives they lead.

Directed by Ryan Fox, White Dwarf leans on a strong ensemble — Gregory Thomas, Lexi Atkins, Shira Scott Astrof — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2014.
